Answer

(c) at the end of the process

Work Step by Step

The plot shows how voltage varies as a function of time, the voltage being maximum at the beginning and reducing hence along with time, when a capacitor discharges. Now, from Ohm's law, $I=V/R$. Current will be maximum when voltage is minimum and voltage is minimum towards the end of the discharge.
