Hello Varun,
Study from preliminaries, basis of charge, taxation of trusts, thjose are important lessons for understanding concepts, even though it will take more time.
Then study the different heads of income. If u read the case laws mentioned, u will get clarity on the subject.. no need at this point to remember assessee's name for quoting in the exam hall.. chances are that the questions will not revolve around a case law, but its good to impress the examiner with any new developments in judiciary.
Once u r done with heads, go to clubbing, set on set off, carry forward, exempt incomes and ch VI A deductions.
Then do return filing, interests, and most important, TDS Lesson.. develp deep knowledge in PGBP and capital gains, as also TDS...
You can impress examiner with remembering sections and rates, circulars, especially rates and circulars.. even knowing that there is a circular is sufficient, just tell examiner that it is as per a cricular, thats fine.
Service tax and VAT u can expect direct Qs in may... so just rush thru in half day....
DONT SKIP ANY LESSON. i just told u what are more risk areas.... DONT SKIP THEORY POTIONS AT ALL, ESP FROM IMPORTANT LESSONS
Do problems for revision.. Its better to do lesson specific problems that to solve 40 questions on computation of GTI... cos smaller problems will give deeper understanding... All the best
