You feel good when you read this but you will not b able to apply concepts. It seems incomplete.

Not possible to refer so many books for a subject. Go for Class Notes for any teacher (Makkar sir/Kalra sir) and refer one textbook for practice & theory..

For practice you may use A N Shridhar's book if you have patience. Lots of solved problems

I agree An Sridhar is advisable only if u ve sound baics...

Boys... In Pattabhi Ram's book....

Dividend is given as a separate chapter..

Securities are dealt in the chapter Bond Valuation I got the book...

Please don't give wrong information that those are not dealt in the text book...

Further lots of concpet problems and illustrations plus past year problems are given...First take a good look at it...

First i thought some chapters are skipped..

But later while doing problems i found the same elswhere..
