The equivalent capacitance of the combination shown in the figure is
3C
2C
\frac{C}{2}
\frac{3C}{2}
Points 1, 2, 3 are at same potential (as they are connected by conducting wire). So the capacitor is short circuited. It does not store any charge. The circuit can be redrawn as (Parallel combination).
