#include <stdio.h>
int a = 12, b = 56, c = 73, d = 33;             /*Declaration of global variables which can used in any function within this programme*/
int add(int);                   /*declaration of user defined function*/
int main()
{
    int n;
    n= add(150);
    printf("The global variables defined in this programme can be accessed here %d %d %d %d\n", a, b, c, d);
    printf("The local variable declared within add function can be accessed here %d \n",n);
}
int add(int zxy)
{
    printf("The local variable declared within add function can be accessed here %d \n", zxy);
    printf("The global variable declared can be accessed here also %d %d %d %d\n", a, b, c, d);
}

The add function need to have a return value, if no return is assigned then it takes some value inside the function itself that depend of which algorith you use (for example you can try removing the second "printf", and you'll find another value to "n")

Hope to have answered you question.

The reason is that you have not assigned a return value to your function "int add(zxy)".

Please add the following return statement in your function implementation:-

int add(int zxy)
{
    printf("The local variable declared within add function can be accessed here %d \n", zxy);
    printf("The global variable declared can be accessed here also %d %d %d %d\n", a, b, c, d);
    
    return zxy;  /*!<return statement is added.>*/
}
