A.        It may lead to appreciation of domestic currency.

B.     It may lead to increased consumer spending. 

C.     It may lead to lower economic growth.

D.     It could have a deflationary impact on economy. 

B?

That is correct. 

Helicopter money involves the central bank or central government supplying large amounts of money to the public, as if the money was being distributed or scattered from a helicopter. One of the main benefits of helicopter money is that the policy theoretically generates demand, which comes from the ability to increase spending. One of the primary risks associated with helicopter money is that the policy may lead to a significant currency devaluation in the international foreign exchange markets. The currency devaluation would be primarily attributed to the creation of more money.
