I have joined a new project a month back.
They have assigned a task which I am not able to do. I tried hard to google, to understand code but nothing helped. I tried to take their help but they are expecting me to come up with a solution.
Please advice how to handle this situation.

I think you're looking for help at the wrong place. I would suggest to ask your seniors for some guidance (not help). If the seniors are helpful in nature (most of them generally are), they'll understand you're new to the company and project and probably will help you to even fix it or at least give you some good pointer on how to debug/approach a solution.

Another option could be, track who introduced the bug (I hope I you understand how to track it in GIT/SVN etc) If that person is still working, ask them for help. They'll probably feel bad that they introduced a bug, so should help you to right their wrong.

Are you working in unknown territory ?

You are not very clear what you are looking here then. Although this isn’t a stack overflow forum but if you can be precise what the problem is people might help.

Can you share (after hiding IP and other information), what kind of task did they assign?

Actually, it's a bug in someone else's code.. It's the application I have no idea of.
So, debugging and going through code is my only way.
