    Answer : Option D

    Explanation :

    Any advertisement highlights only the desirable qualities of the product. So, I is implicit. The 'X' brand has advertised its product in newspaper A. This implies that a large section of people reads advertisements in newspapers and that newspaper A too has a wide circulation. So, neither II nor III is implicit.
