I think, that you can solve this task in such way :

You will use K segment trees.

1. Sort all elements of given array in non-decreasing order.

About sort : if elements are equal — the minimal element will be element which has the rightmost position.

2. You should update every segment tree in such way : 

sum = getSumOnPositionInPrevSegTree(1, myElementPosition - 1)

3. Le'ts add the value of sum in the current segment tree in position myElementPosition.

Another ways to solve the problem:

  1. BIT-based: d3HGAB
  2. Merge-sort based: becXSW

    Can you please explain how BIT is working for this problem? Also , why we need to increment a[i] during scanning the input

      Increment is because BIT is 1-based structure. Bit-based solution is simply in k turns calculate on each turn number of sequences of length i ending in pos.
