Hi dude,
I was in the same position of yours (searching for books) one year back... but got very good ones and cleared in nov 12 (lolz...)
So coming to the point, i would like to give the list and brief descripttion of each :
1. Financial Reporting :
M P Vijay Kumar Text Book + D.S.Rawat Accounting Standards
I have no idea about parveen sharma book. but the above book combination is damn worthy. Plz try to do Accounting standards from D.S.Rawat itself bcoz of the excellent and precise concept with very good sums which will make u exam efficient.
And in Sanjiv Singhal (CCH Publications) , at the end of each A.S. , he has presented a comprehensive chart which will be useful for quick revision at short span of time and will be worthful for last minute studies. (Try to get xerox of 32 charts from a friend's book)
2. SFM
Concept wise, i guess A.N.Sridhar Book will be the best. but the only problem with this book is , its too lengthy... so if u have attended any class of sfm, just follow those concepts and try to solve more sums.
And i would like to suggest even these :
i. A.N.Sridhar Revision Book (released last year) - concept explained precisely and good sums
ii.Pattabhiram - This book is good at three concepts namely,l Derivatives , IFM & Portfolio Management . plz only concept problems here and not revision/practice sums here. they are not worthy.
And at any cost, make sure that , u solve practice manual 2-3 times since in exams, similar models are being asked.
