Plz tell me if this buk is gud for these one concepts- - currency swap - Option Pricing models like BSM - Put call parity - CAPM Model - Real option

Your topics are mostly falling into Derivatives. I am advising here presuming that you want to know concepts and clarity apart from scoring in Exam.
1. Read A N Sridhar, do its questions eventhough some theory topics are not yet clear. 2. Re-read AN Sridhar, again try to do practical questions given at the end. 3. Read the same topic from Module and do its questions. Do questions from Practice Manual. 4. Re-read AN Sridhar, I hope by now, you'll be able to fully understand. If not, refer Pattabhi & Bala ( Snowwhite publication ), it also elaborates finely.
Note : My advice for BSM model of option pricing is not to try to understand it. Just learn formulas, be clear with Normal Table and Cumulative distribution table. You can try to understand Risk Free, Risk Neutral Model, Put Call Parity and Theoritical Value models.
