Explanation:

• We use direct speech when we say anything in the "exact words" of the speaker. We use indirect speech when we say anything in our own words. Remove all inverted commas or marks of quotation. Complete with an end to the sentence.
• If the verb within the "inverted commas/quotation marks" is in the present tense, then we change it into the related past tense. If it is in the simple past tense, change it into the past perfect tense (sentence 1, above), present perfect changes to past perfect (sentence 3, 4, 9). if it is in the future tense, then it changes to "present conditional" (sentence 8 above), Future Continuous will change to Conditional Continuous.
• When the "reporting verb" is in the present/future tense, we do not change the "tense of the verb" inside the quotation marks.
• There are some words that would change when writing in indirect speech such as now becomes then, today becomes that day.
• There are certain Universal truth wherein the tense does not change even in indirect speech such as sentence 10. (here the mothers says her son that he is a good boy which means he is always good so we use the present tense "is" and not the past tense "was". Similarly for sentence (Nidhi told Arjun that "you are a good boy") the tense would not change
