REGARDS
PAYAL

Hi payal ...

First of all , wish u Best of Luck for ur preparation

Everybody has its own way of preparation and u have to find that .

In general , Following are the some of tips:

Accounts: Give more importance to Accounting standards and cover all the chapters of ur module. Refer only two books ;a) Institute module b) ur coachig institute Book

be sure to cover all the problems from ur module bcoz many times same problems had been taken from module.

MAFA:  In MAFA u have to be very conceptual and iwould suggest u to refer one & only Book for MAFA - AN SHRIDHAR(name of author).Its a superb book  from theaory & Problems point of view.

Auditing : First of all Study all AAS and try to give the references of AAS in ur exam answer book (whwerever it is applicable) it will help u to get the good marks in Auditing.

If u have the enough time ReferPADHUKAS PUBLICATION FOR AUDITING(SINCE IT IS VERY VAST BOOK) but it is a best book

Corporate Law : ONe & only one book- Munish Bhandari (Please Don't go for any other book) Please check the allocation of marks to the different chapters from previous attempt question papers. (u will find a trend and please follow it)

Auditing - Refer Phadukas Publication  Book. Give more importance to AAS & AS . Try to give the references of  AAS while atttempting  any question during exam.( plz give reference whever it is suitable ).

Preferences & more attention shud be given to thechapters like Professional Ethics & CA act, Bank Audit, Companies Audit , .

There are seperate books published on AAS:

1) Author- DS RAWAT.

2) Author - PADHUKAS PUBLICATION.(i think author is G SEKAR)

INDIRECT TAXES:

I would suggest u  to refer textbook of Sanjay Bhangar. It is a very students friendly book .

IDT paper is very scoring if u take it very smartly (believe me i got 68 marks in IDT) jst  read below:

If u want to score in IDT ,make sure that u have attempted the entire 100 marks paper of IDT. if u manage to do this half the battle is won (believe me its true..)

If u don't know a particular answer jst write anything u want (some what related to the topic given in the question) (A CA can easily do that)but at any cost make sure to attempt the entire paper.

At last Don't try to give the lenghty answers.... While answering a particular question Jst remember two things in mind

1) marks alloted to that particular question.

2) what has been asked in the question .

Ur answer should specific to that particular question ( no matter if ur answer goes for half page for 8-10 marks question) Jst be specific.
