Dear anurag bhattacharjee,
The positive charge over the Benzene Ring is certainly not stable. This is because, Positive charge is stabilized by adjacent negative charge - such as electron donating groups – and destabilized by adjacent positive charge such as electronegativity(increasing) and increasing s-character of orbitals. (Opposite charges attract, like charges repel).
Postive charge alone is itself not stable.
Hope this helped you immensely..!
All the Very Best & Good Luck to you ..!!
