Saxena and Vashisht Cost Accounting Text and Problems Cost Accounting and Financial Management by Khan and Jain ( I suggest go for this one no need to buy book for FM seperately) S.N Maheshwari is also equally good.
Actually its better to read theory from Study Material only as thats what will come in exam. Go for only problems and solutions in that case. In case you seek additional Knowledge go for books containing text and problems Hope this helps
FOR COSTING PADUKA' S PUBLICATION IN COST ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL MANAGMENT IS VERY EXCELLENT. IF YOU GO THROUGH WHOLE BOOK AND WIN OVER IT THEN I DON'T THINK ANY OTHER BOOK YOU NEEDED. SO REFER THAT BOOK IMMEDIATLY. AND IF YOU HAVE ANY OTHER PROBLEM IN PE-II ABOUT BOOKS OR OTHER THING MAIL ME AT ajit1_2ka4 @ yahoo.com

for costing at P2 cost accounting by Khan & jain is good the combine book for fm and cost nut its better to use module and the problems asked by institue u wil get more clarity and consistansy in solving the problem
According to me Cost accounting by Dr N.K Agrawal is the best. For financial management books written by khan and jain viz Financial management is an excellent supplement.
All the best and do well.
