HackerEarth Class representatives problem solution

In this HackerEarth Class representatives, problem-solution John teaches a class of n students. Each student is assigned a unique roll number from 1 to n. He also knows the heights of each student. He needs to select a set of class representatives (a class can have any number of representatives).

A set of students are valid candidates for representatives if the following condition holds:

There does not exist a pair of students i,j such that roll[i] < roll[j] and height[i] >= height[j].
John wants to select the maximum number of students as class representatives. However, he has a new student that got enrolled whose height is x. In order to increase the number of class representatives, John assigns him a roll number i (from 1 to n + 1) randomly and then increases the roll numbers of all those students by 1 whose roll number is >= i. If the number of class representatives does not increase after this process, then he repeats the same procedure (he again assigns him a roll number from 1 to n + 1 randomly after reverting the roll numbers of all the existing students from 1 to n). Determine the expected number of times John needs to repeat this procedure in order to increase the number of class representatives.
