Because in question giving no less than, so option A is not correct.

A is correct.

No stiffeners are provided if web is less than d/85.

Vertical stiffeners are provided if web is more than d/85 but less than d/200.

Vertical +1horizontal stiffeners are provided if web is more than d/200 but less than d/250 (in this case this 1 horizontal stiffener is usuall place at 2/5th of the depth of neutral axis from the compression flange).

Vertical +2 horizontal stiffeners are provided if web is more than d/250 (in this case this 2nd horizontal stiffener is usuall place at neutral axis).

Option B is the right answer.

Minimum D/200 max is D/85.

If the thickness exceeds d/85 then no stiffener required because. There is enough strength to carry the load as the thickness is more.

So, the minimum d/200.
