Hello,
Since capacitor is basically two conducting plates with small distance in between, Hence when you short circuit the capacitor you make both the conducting plates one single conductor. So there is 0 capacitance in a short circuited capacitor. It will behave as a conducting wire in the circuit.
Hope this Helps,
Regards,
Arin.

Dear candidate when you short circuit a capacitor, its two plates / terminals become one common conductor. So there is no question of any capacitance between them i.e. the capacitance becomes zero. For any circuit assessment/ analysis, there is just no capacitor, but just a wire / conductor in its place.
All the best
Hope this helps
