None of them are right. " The versions with "regard(ing)" sound more business-jargony. Note "application s ".

None of them are right. The easiest thing is to say:

"I am calling about one of my client's applications."

You can also say:

"I am calling regarding one of my client's applications."

"I am calling with regard to one of my client's applications."

The versions with "regard(ing)" sound more business-jargony.

Note "applications".
