Solution

The correct option is B
The order of stability of carbonium ion is
$T e r t i a r y > s e c o n d a r y > p r i m a r y > m e t h y l$
Tertiary carbonium ion ( formed in b) are more stable because of electron repelling (+I effect) nature of $C H_{3}$ group due to which the +ve charge gets dispersed and also due to hyperconjugation.
