The correct order of stability in given carbonion will be? 

Dear student
Higher is the s-character, higher will be the electronegativity of the atom.
Higher is the electronegativity of the atom, higher is the stability of the carbanion.

III has highest s-charcter followed by II, followed by I.
Thus the correct order is III >II >I
hence option 2 is correct.

According to me the answer should be 3>2>1
As there is more the s character more will be the withdrawing i.e. more -I effect.
So the charged is more deintensified in 3 than in 2 and in 1 the methyl group shows +I effect and is least stable
