If it is cantilever beam answer would be a bottom later.
If it is SS Beam then the top layer.
If it is SS Beam then the top layer.

The answer which is given that is only true for when load is applied transversely downward.

@Navaj.
If so, why there is compressive stress at the bottom in case of cantilever beam?
If so, why there is compressive stress at the bottom in case of cantilever beam?

Answer is correct if it is a cantilever. It is wrong if the beam is simply supported.

Some books mention top layer and some books mention bottom layer. I am confusing.

Maximum tensile stress is developed at bottom fibre due to elongation of fibre.

Please explain it, how the compressive stress developed in the bottom layer?

Tensile force and tensile stressed are different and opposite to each other.
