hey, i honestly think that there is such concept like BEST BOOK of any subject. speciallly for IDT . ther are may groups who follow books according to need, some prefer BANGAR as its in Q &A format, SOme prefer AJAY JAIN, SOME prefer NS govindan while some go for K VAitheeswaran bookk.
you hav to decide for urself that wich book suits ur style of reading. for example, take bangar, its in question answer format, good for those who can mug up or like evry explanation in technical language, but that book lacks practical approach n those who like to study conceptually find it really hard to cope up with that authers book (both DT n IDT)
I always preferred DIPPAK GUPTA's modules as they are written from practical approach, n are better then evry other book on th esubject for those who want to Visualise n understand the technical subject like IDT. note that they are not as useful to the first time readers of IDT.
Conclusion: if u joined class of IDT n want to refer some book to gain practical knowledge of what exacly happens the go for dippak gupta's modules.
if u didnt join tutions n want to self study the go for either of NS govindan or K Vaitheeswaran
if u just wnna paas subject by Scoring good marks n keep specific approach then go for bangar

Thanks Prajyot....Ur comment really helped me
Well i my self bought NS Givindan as am doin self study.Its the best to make ur concepts very sound.the book has maintained the flow of sections unlike bangar.No doubt Vaitheaswaran & Datey are also very good Books .only thing which Distinguises N.s. Govindan's IDT from the latter two is ,this book tries to interact with the student & language is completely simplified.
But only limitation of the book is there are very limited practical questions.Apart from this the book is worth buying.
Am on research which book is ideal for practical questions...Wanted to knw abt datey's work book.If some could provide some insights with regard to same ,it would be helpful.
Regards.

@ CA. Vivek M : Sorry sir, but in the interest of the students I have to tell u this.... K Vaidheeswaran book is not properly amended in Service Tax which was published for May 2011 exam... So on than basis I wont reommend that book... Bangar is good book, also can refer NS Govindan or Padhkas depending on how u like to study... Bangar & Padhkas is Q&A type & NS Govindan is Section wise...
