1. Practice Stage - 

Sarvesh Verma is an amazing book in order to get a hold on the basics of the Subject. The book further is divided in the two different stages, Level 1 and Level 2. If you complete these two Levels and cram the shortcuts and the rules no question will get out of the reach of this book. 


2. Time to go for the kill-

Kiran Publications book is the best place to go for the last touches. This book consists the questions from all the previous year examinations. This will give you a feel of the level of questions before the final day. Go for it and try to complete it 10 days before the exam.
