Android - How to navigate activity stack/tasks

I have 3 Activities, Activity A, B, & C. From ActivityA, I click on a button to launch ActivityB and within ActivityB I click another button to launch ActivityC.

I am trying to figure out the proper way to return to ActivityA from ActivityC with optional return to ActivityB from ActivityC.

If I am in ActivityC and click the home button I want to return to ActivityB, but if I click my 'save' button I want to finish ActivityC & ActivityB and show ActivityA.

How can I accomplish this?

Answer Edit: As krishna murali's suggested in his answer, he was about 99% of the way there. These two flags did the trick Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP & Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP

On Click of your button to return to ActivityA from ActivityC. Use this:

Intent intent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), ActivityA.class);
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
startActivity(intent);

This will clear all the activities on top of ActivityA.
