Dear Mansi
First try to complete vinod gupta's summary module and then try to complete practice manual of Direct Tax , this would help you to score atleast 50 - 55 marks in exam and also go through recent case law book and ammendement

Just go through Practice manual and go through recent amendments, as it is you won't be able to revise everything in 1 day before the exams.
So its better you study from where you would be studying just before the exams, so that you will be used to it...
Try emphasising on how you will write the answers during exam time, writing about everything is not important, writing what is asked is the best policy!
Examiners love it....

Give more attention to the amendments, majority questions are asked from the recent changes.
Try studying the topics which you like the most so that atleast a study flow will be created, then you can get along with the tough topics.
For starters you can start with TDS or Wealth tax, penalties etc.
Then go for heads of income and all.
Hope this might be helpful to you!
