Jim Rogers: It’s very difficult for foreigners to do business in India because India doesn’t like foreigners and keeps them away. The biggest proof of this is Walmart, which has many stores in China, but not a single fully-owned store in India, simply because India doesn’t like overseas businessmen.
Which of the following is an assumption made in drawing the conclusion above?
(A) There is nothing that can make India like foreign businessmen.
(B) The fact that Walmart has many stores in China proves that China loves foreigners.
(C) The limited size of the Indian market hasn’t stopped Walmart from entering India.
(D) Any foreign company other than Walmart is also not present in India.
(E) China’s policies are probably more favourable towards foreigners than are India’s policies.

Official Explanation
Answer: C
The argument concludes that the reason Walmart does not have any stores in India is because India does not like foreigners. However, there could be other reasons as well for Walmart not doing so. Thus, in arriving at its conclusion, the argument assumes that there could be no other reason for Walmart not entering India, such as Walmart itself not wanting to enter India. C points out one such passive assumption in the argument and is the correct answer.
(A) Irrelevant to the argument and not necessary for the argument to be true.
(B) Whether China loves foreigners or not is not our concern.
(C) The correct answer.
(D) The argument never talks about any other company so this cannot be an assumption in the argument.
(E) This may or may not be an inference but is definitely not an assumption.
