Dear friends,

Please let me know the best book availabe for Audit for CA Final EXAM. Something which is easy to understand & more importantly it should facilitate QUICK REVISION. My attempt is due this November.. haven't started Audit though.

Please help....

Also, if I may add that we come across people suggesting us that we should study different audit books(e.g. Padhuka, V K Agarwal, Surabhi Bansal+Compiler) for covering different topics????

DON'T WE??????

Please go through the below link to find out the answers or provide some better ones still......

IMP: Please do not put an endless list creating confusion & back your suggestion with REASONS for going with a particular book.

niki well my attempt is also due in nov10 i tried vk aggarwal but i do not liked that book

i found it dry and non covering important aspects as well

when i seen surbhi bansal i found it better than v k aggarwaal

see in the exam time u are supposed to answer a lot of case study based questions

which are only given in the best form in padhuka

so i am thinking to buy surbhi bansal along with paduka

surbhi bansal is easy to revise during exams

and paduka is only for case studies!!!

i did not find any other better alternative!

Hmm....Ravi, you are right I think....we are supposed to have good hold on case studies in Audit....

Somone also told me Surabhi Bansal is good only if you are taking her coaching classes....& if classes not taken then then it becomes really difficult on the exam day!! At the same time SB is really good for revising before the exam day coz it's less bulky...

N.B. - These are the personal views of someone & I don't wish to demean a teacher's stature...

Thanks Ravi for your inputs....

Guys,

More views are required....

Hey Ravindra,

Many thanks for your view.....

I agree that Padhuka is given in Q & A format which is good but I am apprensive as to how I'll revise such a bulky book before exam....I always intend to study in a way that I can revise the whole subject before the exam day...

Any suggestions on revising Padhuka better Ravindra???

Dear frient

Study only following for CA Final Auditing

1. Surabhi Bansal - Study Extensively ( In the exam please do write point wise as given in that book and don't write lengthy theory answers which will not be considered mostly by valuers.

2. In addition study rawat book for SA's

3. Learn to draft CARO, MR Letter, Opinions

Seek also ganapathy sirs and other CA's important for exams which will be frequently found in this site as an attachment.

ALL THE BEST

And againg if have VKAgarwal then also try and cover Company Audit and Professional Ethics from Padhuka......
