A and C are not guilty under section 306 because instigation necessarily indicates some active suggestions or support all stimulations to the commission of the act itself, and advice can become instigation only if it is found that it was advice which was meant actively to suggest or stimulate the commission of an offence. Hence the correct option is b.
