According to me, option C is the correct one. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Stress should be zero at the centroid axis as per the formula.

Maximum at outer surface of the member.

Yes even I doubt it that if due to torsion shear stress is zero at centroidal axis or not.

As the formula suggests that shear stress increases as the radius increases, hence the shear stress should be maximum at the outer surface (maximum possible radius) and zero at the centroidal axis.
