Dear Kabir,
We recommend the following books:
Direct Tax - Vinod Gupta
Indirect Tax - Bangar
Other than that, ICAI likes to test your ability and proficiency on the concepts in this subject.
Be thorough with your concepts in this subject. Focus on amendments and concentrate on important chapters such as Assessment Procedure, Profits and Gains from Business and Professions, Capital Gains, Minimum Alternate Tax, Taxation of a Non Resident. One thorough reading and Two Revisions are a must.
If you have done an articleship and taken it seriously and pursued it seriously, you will reap some benefit from it for sure.
Also, Read Supplementary Study Paper, Research Test Paper, Recent Case Laws, and if time permits go through Practice manual as it has been noticed that is the past few Question Papers some questions were from the Practice Manual.
