The object should be placed within the focus (between the pole and the focus) and in front of the concave mirror in order to obtain a virtual, erect and magnified image

Answer:
As per the Cartesian sign convention, the distance from the mirror to object is negative and from mirror to opposite side is positive.
So when the object is placed "beyond the centre of curvature", the given magnification can be obtained.
