Thanks @Srinath.

Option D is the right answer.

For torsional and warping restraint effective length of the beam is 0.7 of the span.

L = 0.7 for simply supported,
L = 0.85 for cantilever,
L = 2L for cantilever continuous.

D is the Right answer.

L = 0.7 for simply supported,
L = 0.85 for the cantilever,
L = 2L for cantilever continuous.
