For Law (Munish Bhandari),
Can anyone tell me what is the difference between the main book and the handbook? What are the contents of the hand book and how much percent approx. of the main book is covered in the hand book?
Kindly suggest if I should buy the main book OR the hand book OR both.
Thankyou.

The basic difference is that main book is a detailed one explaining the topics in Detail while the handbook covers the topics in short.For example in handbook in the chapter-SEBI act,1992 the regulations & guidelines are not mentioned which are to be done through the main book,but handbook covers the topics which are relevant from exam point of view,but if one has enough time to know in detail,the Main book is fruitful & more thorough depending on time & reader's requirement.................

Thankyou all so much!
So, 1) if I study only the handbook properly, its enough? (buy only handbook)
2) Or try one reading from main book and do handbook properly. (buy both books)
3) All matter thats there is the handbook in covered in the main book? (Coz the new edition of handbook will be available in August only-buy only main book)

Handbook is better .. Only SEBI guidelines are not there.. Do it separately ...
