Is the inference a valid
inference?
 ‘Holidays on Instalment Payment (HIP)
plans are being introduced. According to
an Indian Market Research Bureau (IMRB)
study, at least 12,000 families in Mumbai
alone will opt for such deferred payment
plans for their holidays in the next three
years.

ANSWER:
 Given facts, do not tell us about what is the
ratio of population that is being benefited
from this. With lack of such information, we
shall not be able to draw a conclusion
about total population. Had we got data
about number people in Mumbai, we could
have drawn some inference. We cannot
draw a conclusion about India as a whole,
as we don’t have facts and figures.
