Maximum shear stress in concrete depends on grade of concrete only. Therefore none of these are correct.

If we studied the stress diagram of a single reinforced beam, we know that shear stress = shear force/ area. Hera Area on the tensile zone is = width * depth.

& depths of tensile zone = lever arm.
So the answer is correct.

No, as per IS 456 shear force/bd.

According to IS 456 it should be effective depth, not lever arm.
