The selected answer is wrong:
the meaning nearest to enchanting is attractive, the delightful you selected is perfectly wrong. Tell me how would you grade your best students online where your answers mostly are wrong, is appalling anyway
enchanting

There are two answers to this question. The word "enchanting" has two synonyms present in the option, "attractive" and "delightful". Therefore both answers are correct and both answers should be allotted the mark for this question, otherwise one of the options should be changed. If other students who use this CBT decide not to clarify from the internet if this is correct they will be robbed of the full knowledge of the question and miss out that the word "enchanting" in real sense has two correct options in the list of options provided. Thank you

I also picked "Attractive" but while it's a good answer, the best answer is "Delightful".
Based on the options available, option B is the correct answer.
when the word "enchanting" used to describe someone or something then it's "attractive"
e.g "her beauty is enchanting"
but when its not used as a direct description of someone or something then it's "delightful"
i.e an enchanting mood or atmosphere
