In conditional sentences 'if you had' can be replaced with 'had you'. It makes no difference so 'C' is right.

It's the rule of "past time" of "unreal conditions".
Rule:
If + Subject + #"verb in past perfect"..... + {would/could/might} + have + verb in past participle.
Had + Subject + #"verb in past participle"..... + {would/could/might} + have + verb in past participle.
Rule:
If + Subject + #"verb in past perfect"..... + {would/could/might} + have + verb in past participle.
Had + Subject + #"verb in past participle"..... + {would/could/might} + have + verb in past participle.
