2C

Explanation

JEE Main 2023 (Online) 10th April Morning Shift Physics - Capacitor Question 29 English Explanation 1

Capacitors numbered (3) and (4) are short circuit as their both plates are connected to terminal B which makes the potential difference across both to be zero. The equivalent circuit is as shown :
