IMO A
because either X or Y is the correct idiom.

@ gmat_perfect : What is your doubt ? One simple criterion is to remove based on idiom.

The intended meaning of sentence is -- a digital imprint divison is created and the divison will publish some works to be sold online . A is best construct to comunicate the same. Any question in particular ?
