loans are split into current and noncurrent portions - both of them should be considered as debt
if the question states only "other current liabilities" , should that be assumed as a loan and included as debt in the calculation of DEBT-EQUITY RATIO TEST. If so should an assumption be given in the exam in this regard ?

Question will usually state the current portion of long term debt. Its always preferable to explain your solutions through assumptions made.
