    During IAS Preparation, it is very important to read important books for the respective subjects of the UPSC IAS Exam syllabus. Currently, I’m taking coaching from Dhyeya IAS and is going very well but with that, books also play an important role. Here are a few suggested books relevant for the IAS Preparation.

    For Indian polity, go for Indian Polity by Laxmikanth, An Introduction to the Constitution of India by D. D. Basu, The Constitution of India by P. M. Bakshi, Old NCERT books for Indian Polity.

    For Indian history, go for ‘Ancient India’ by RS Sharma, History of Medieval India by Satish Chandra, ‘A Brief History of Modern India’ by Spectrum.

    For Indian economy, go for Class 11 and Class 12 NCERTs, Indian Economy by Ramesh Singh, Indian Economy by Mishra and Puri, Current Economic Survey.

    For Geography, go for Old NCERT books, Physical Geography by Goh Cheng Leong, For Maps Oxford School Atlas.

    For Newspaper read The Hindu, Economic Times, The Indian Express and you could also get it easily from the Dhyeya IAS youtube channel.

    For Mathematics, RS Aggarwal of S Chand publication is enough for the preparation.

    To be very honest, I prefer watching Dhyeya IAS’s current affairs on Youtube. It covers in-depth information related to any topic. Their videos will help you in knowing the latest current affairs.

    Dhyeya IAS, Chahal Academy, and Apti Plus Academy have the best success rate. You can join them without any hesitation but remember, you must work on yourself too and become less dependent on the institute.
