I want to clearify my query in macro-economics. Not about the subject matter but in general.
For example:
Q.1 Fringe benefit tax was introduced in ___
a) 1994-95 b) 1995-96 c) 2000-01 d) 2005-06

Q.2 PIN was introduced in ____
a) 1970 b) 1972 c) 1974 d) 1976

Both the above questions were asked in the December 2009 C.A.- C.P.T. examination.
But we wont find questions in the Module.I mean not in the exercise, but even in the whole chapter or unit or whole module we dont find these questions.
But we find these type of questions are generally asked in the examination. Then which book or where do we refer to find solution of this query. Is the institute provides the students any kind of other material for these topics mentioned above.

Fringe Benefit Tax was introduced in 2005-06. Regarding Fringe Benefit, the year of its introduction was given in 2nd part of economics.

PIN was introduced in 1972. Regarding PIN, it was not given in module. But I feel a little bit of general knowledge helps in this exam.

Institute modules and Model Test Papers given by Institute are more than enough to gain significant marks. If you strictly prepare the module and model test papers, I hope one will easily get 150+ marks. And for any query you can search that text in google.com. There u can easily find answers.

Hope this will suffice ur query.

Hi Sailesh,

I do agree with Krishna. The key word is Macro and aspiring candidate should try to enhance his general knowledge about anything related to business world. Even being said that it's really difficult foe a student to get the idea by reading newspaper or any books about what introduced in 1972. It’s like knowing history also.

Still the good part is it's a competitive exam and you can pass even after not knowing the answer of such difficult questions as very few people among your competitors would got the correct answer of such unseen questions. Best of luck to you and thanks god I am not facing those questions :-)
