Statement: "Those who are appearing for this examination for the first time should be helped in filling up the form." - An instruction to invigilating staff.
Assumptions:
- The form is somewhat complicated.
- Candidates can appear more than once for this examination.
Answer: Option
Explanation:
The statement mentions that only those students are to be helped who are filling up the form for the first time. This does not mean that the form is complicated/So, I is not implicit. However, II follows from the statement and so is implicit.

@Everyone.
If the form is not anyhow complicated then why a candidate needs help?
So, the Answer should be (E). Both I & II are implicit.

For a first timer there is full possibility that the form filling could be difficult and they might need help. So only II being implicit is incorrect.

I think I is Implicit because one ask for help only if he\she finds difficuty in that.

In the case it is impled that help is extended in caases who do not have experience in filling forms and may face problem or have doubts which will need help.

Because for the first timers it is complicated that is why help should be extended to them, but how come ii is implicit?

I think both statements are implicit because the form can be complicated and hence those who are filling it for the first time should be informed.

Yeah both statements are implicit, if filling up the form is easy, why new comers will need such help ?

@ALL
Easy-to-fill or complicated-to-fill it is depends upon the candidates knowledge. Even though the form is easy to fill, candidates can be helped appearing for the first time. So, I is not implicit.
Candidates should be help for the first time - from this statement we can understand that candidates can be appeared more than one time. So, II is implicit.

Both the Assumptions are valid. Clearly the instructions to the invigilating staff has been given with the objective (Assumption) in mind that the form is somewhat complicated, otherwise there was no need to give instruction. Similarly If the there was no need to write the superfluous words " For the First Time". Hence both the Assumptions are valid.

Neither of the assumptions are implicit as the form needn't be complicated and the number of times candidates can appear is immaterial as all candidates appear only once as FIRST timers.
