(d) In this case, balloon is filled up with water and then put into water. Initially, after some oscillations it become stable because the downward directing force exerted by weight of water in balloon is balanced by the upward directing buoyancy force of water. Hence, the resultant weight in water is zero as there is no resultant force acting upon it.
