@ harman 
benzyllic carbocation is more stable than allylic carbocation , and vinyllic carbocation is more stable than allylic but less stable than benzyllic . 
and as far as primary tertiary and secondary are concerned , then as we move tertiary to secondary and secondary to primary then the enrgy of carbocation increases and the stability decreases as energy is inversely prop. to the stability . 
so, tertiary carbocation is more stable than secondary and primary .
