I had directory structure A/B, A/C, A/D and then had few files in each directory B, C, D.

Lets say, in B - B1.txt, B2.txt, B3.txt IF someone delete B2.txt from perforce and i dont know when, is there any way i can find out what are the files deleted from the directory and at what time?

In P4V you can turn on the option to "Show Deleted Depot Files".

Deleted depot files will then display, with their file icons having an "x" on them, and you can easily examine their history.
