I found solution

just change 

compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:19.1.+'

to 

compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:22.0.0'

also change 

compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:21.0.3'

to

compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:22.0.0'

And use Multi-dex property in your build.gradle file like this: 

defaultConfig {
    applicationId "com.sendpulse.sendpulse"
    minSdkVersion 15
    targetSdkVersion 21
    multiDexEnabled true

}

then clean project and rebuild

I also had the similar problem. I removed each jar and checked one by one until i found it.
Basically this problem occur due to jar files. So,try this, Put your jar files one by one in dependencies and test.You'll easily get the fix.

  1. Do a project cleanup. Go to Build->Clean Project and try again
  2. If (1) doesn't work, close and restart your compiler.
  3. Do a quick check on your Build.Grade file, make sure only the important files are kept, and delete the unused ones.
  4. If all else fails, add "multiDexEnabled true" to your app-level Build.Gradle file.

Do this:

defaultConfig {
    applicationId "com.yourcompanyname.yourappname"
    minSdkVersion 21
    targetSdkVersion 23
    versionCode 1
    versionName "1.0"

    // Enabling multidex support.
    multiDexEnabled true
}
