4). Data inadequate

Let the total number of boys in the row be $N$.

Sudhanshu is $12^{th}$ from the left.
When he moves $4$ places to the right, his new position from the left becomes:

$12 + 4 = 16$

After shifting, he is also $18^{th}$ from the right.
The total number of boys in the row is given by:

$N = \text{Position from left} + \text{Position from right} - 1$

Substituting values:

$N = 16 + 18 - 1$

$N = 33$

Thus, the total number of boys in the row is:

$\boxed{33}$
