Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

The preposition during is used to say when something happens within a specific period of time (followed by a noun phrase like "our stay").
On the other hand, 'while' is a conjunction and is usually followed by a clause containing a subject and a verb (e.g., while we were staying). Since "our stay in Ahmedabad" is a noun phrase, 'during' is the grammatically correct choice.
