Carnot cycle is also know as striking cycle. So the answer is equal efficiency.

Efficiency of the striking cycle is less than Carnot but efficiency of regenerative striking cycle is equal to Carnot cycle.

The efficiency of Stirling cycle is equal to Carnot cycle. This is due to the fact that the cycle is reversible and all reversible cycles have the same efficiency.
Ex: Carnot, Stirling, Ericsson.

Efficiency of sterling cycle is equal to Carnot cycle under the assumption that effectiveness of heat ex changer use in sterling engine must be 1.

Carnot cycle says 100% efficiency. But stirling cycle have some heat losses are there. So how to say equal efficiency?

In a special case efficiency of both the cycle is equal otherwise carnot cycle is more efficient. Therefore option A should be correct.

Carnot cycle is more efficient than Stirling cycle.

Carnot cycle is maximum efficient cycle compared to all the cycle since the conditions are ideal and there will be no losses.
