- If assumption II is implicit.
- If either assumption I or II is implicit.
- If peither assumption I nor II is implicit.
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
Assumption I: "TTI is not popular in mofussil areas."
The statement mentions TTI's readership being highest in Bangalore (the metropolis), but it does not say anything about its readership in mofussil (rural or non-urban) areas. Therefore, this assumption is not necessarily implied by the statement.
Assumption II: "TTI has the popular feature of political cartoons in it."
The statement does not mention any reason for TTI's popularity in Bangalore, so the presence of political cartoons as a reason is not directly implied by the statement either.
The correct answer is (D): If either assumption I nor II is implicit.

Aarya had always been a mediocre student. Luckily, after finishing her undergraduate degree from a tier-two engineering college, she secured a decent but modestly paying job at a reputable IT company.
However, after a year on the job, Aarya found her role mundane. When her best friend at the company, Shruti, left to pursue an MBA from a top-tier business school, citing significant career growth and potential salary increase upon graduation, Aarya felt intrigued and inspired to follow the same path. Shruti appreciated Aarya’s aspirations, telling her that doing an MBA from a top-tier business school could not only land Aarya a lucrative job but also it could fast-track her career progression. However, Aarya was concerned whether she would be able to balance between her MBA entrance exam preparation and her current job. Aarya considered resigning to focus entirely on MBA entrance exam preparation, but Shruti cautioned her that top-tier business schools might view a career break unfavourably, as they prefer continuous professional engagement.- XAT - 2025
