Statement: Of all the radio sets manufactured in India, the 'X' brand has the largest sale.
Assumptions:
- The sale of all the radio sets manufactured in India is known.
- The manufacturing of no other radio set in India is as large as 'X' brand radio.
Answer: Option
Explanation:
Clearly, the comparison could not be made without knowing the sale of all the radio sets. So, I is implicit. The statement mentions only that the sale is largest and nothing is mentioned about the manufacture. So, II is not implicit.

I think we can conclude that statement 2 is correct but how can we say anything about statement 1?

Here superlative- largest is being already used. So II should be the answer.
