"if you go to the market?" shows that "if in any case he goes to the market, then buy jaggery" (not sure if the person being asked is going to the market or not).
"When you go to the market" tells that "he is going to the market and when he does get some jaggery" (sure that the person is going to the market).
"When you go to the market" tells that "he is going to the market and when he does get some jaggery" (sure that the person is going to the market).

It also can be written as,
WILL you PLEASE BUY ME SOME JAGGERY IF you GO TO THE MARKET.
Then, In this, there is a mistake with option B (or) as written that THE MARKET is there any specific market specified. No its not specified just its like any market. So either options B, C are flaws.

Will you please buy some jaggery for me if you go to the market?
Error is in part c, because use of the before market is indicating uncertainty. To buy jaggery one need to go to market surely, so remove 'the', if something than usual is intended then 'the' would be used.

"will you please buy me some jaggery when you go to the market?"
This seems more apt....than,
"will you please buy me some jaggery if you go to the market?"
And
If you are going to the market Will you please buy me some jaggery ?
is also perfect.

The sentence is correct.
First would make it more humble but will also be used. Another thing people have concerned is using "when" > it does make sense to use when but the appropriate use is if clause. The if clause from here is. "if (present simple). Will".

Although it sounds correct, however, instead of "some jaggery for me", it should have been "me some jaggery". Will you please buy me some jaggery if you go to the market?
