i would suggest surabhi bansal book,do practical problems from latest practice manual.

but i follow kamalgarg book,except caro all other topics are well covered in that book,especially standards are awesome and language is easy to understand.

but caro i felt very short.

surabhi bansal is crisp and you have to add some more points in exams,i felt presentation of answer is not proper.

padhuka i would not suggest as it is monotonous and language is not appealing,it will drive you to sleep.

now it is up to you.

see all the 3 books and decide.

one caution never go for v.k.agarwal book.lots of mistakes in that.

Surbi bandal is not good for practical topics , if you buy surbhi bansal you must refer ths along with padhuka.. One more book is available in the market which is quite balanced - srinivasan anand g by taxmann. You can try this book.

i studied Surbhi Bansal in Inte and found it short and precise which makes understnding concept a little difficult, so feeling a little 'not confident' about Surbhi Bansal. can you provide me detail about padhuka

surbhi bansal is pretty brief and u will always have to search for more contentn to add to that and in a few chapters, some topics are not discussed at all. I also got surbhi bansal and got it replaced by Padhukas.

Padhukas language is better than Surbhi Bansal's. And also Padhuka's book has questions from past exams and RTP which gives it an advantage.

Surbhi Bansal's book is notes only and Padhuka is a complete reference (in questions answers format)
