Contract Law MCQ Debate

Hey guys, I and my friend, Rohan, just got into a debate on a Contract Law MCQ for CUET PG. We both think differently and I'm confused now. The question is:

In a contract of carriage, who is liable if the goods get damaged in transit?

A) Shipowner is liable if the goods are carried in the ship's hold. B) Consignor is liable for damage to goods carried by the shipowner. C) The party who breaches the contract is liable. D) The contract is void and no liability arises.

Rohan says A) Shipowner is liable since he's the one carrying the goods. I say B) Consignor is liable, as he's the one who hired the shipowner to transport the goods. The actual question is from a different contract law exam somewhere — it's not a trick question. Which one do you guys think is correct?
