(I) The stability is due to resonance.

(II) The stability is due to only inductive effect.

(III) The stability is due to resonance and +I effect of 1 methyl group.

(IV) The stability is due to both by resonance and +I effect of 2 methyl groups.

So, order of stability of carbocation is IV>III>I>II or II<I<III<IV.
