Jurisprudence

1. R.W.M. Dias, Jurisprudence
2. Prof. (Mrs.) Nomita Aggarwal , Jurisprudence (Legal Theory)
3. B.N. Maini Tripathi, Legal Theory
4. Edger Bodenheimer, Jurisprudence
On a personal note, jurisprudence is an extremely interesting subject. Many find it dry dull and boring. Its all right. Jurisprudence needs patience time and thought, do not try and mug up all the schools of thought in one day, you will get confused. cover one school everyday, each school has many thinkers.
What can be done for jurisprudence.
Books like DHYANI, PARANJAPEY, DIAS are good.
Going by the reccomendations of my seniors, Paranjapey seems to be a better book than dhyani. Dhyani is easier to understand, but it doesnt cover everything. Economic appraoch is not there is paranjapey and dhyani, outside reference would be required, use Dias or Rama Jois for this portion.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DO NOT STUDY FROM AK JAIN. THE BOOK DOESNT COVER ANYTHING, MOREOVER THE THEORIES GIVEN IN IT ARE WRONG!!! PLEASE DONT GO BY WHAT AK JAIN SAYS, ITS HIS OWN DISTROTED VERSION, ITS AK JAIN'S JURISPRUDENCE. DO NOT STUDY FROM IT.
Study hard, it will take time, be patient with this subject. There is no BARE ACT involved in this. Do not ask me which bare act. Please.

Yes Corporate Law, many of us are scared for this subject, mainly due to the fact that it is very vast.
Problem areas of this Subject- AK Jain barely covers anything.
What it however covers is the introductory note, registeration, MOA, AOA, duties of directors, rule laid down in Foss v. Harbottle (oppression and mismanagement), winding up.
So ultimately if you see, it covers unit one, then it covers, promoters, duties of directors, and kinds of windingup. So you can see the whole course is not covered.
To cover the syllabus the following books may be used:-
1. Avtar Singh (FAT BOOK)
2. N.D.Kapoor (FAT BOOK)
3. R.K.Bangia (relatively small)
4. Avtar Singh (abridged version)
5. N.D. Kapoor (abridged version)
6. Maams Class notes are extremely exhaustive and well prepared, those who have all the notes may study from those. On a personal note, few topics dealt by maam are much better than in the books itself.
All the best!

proved, oral and documentary evidence (sec. 3)
d. Relevancy and admissibility
e. Doctrine of res gestae (Sec. 6,7,8,9)

c. Dying Declarations (sec. 32) (Number of hours – 10)
Method of proof of facts
b. Presumptions (secs. 4, 41, 79-90, 105, 107, 108, 112, 113A, 114 and 114A)
c. Oral and documentary evidence (secs. 59-78)

Evidence, may seem to be extremely confusing, dont go by the looks of it. Your Bare Act is your BIBLE/GITA/QURAN read its thoroughly. (Not trying to hurt any religious sentiments)
It is extremely essential that you go through the bare act. Read is slowly, carefully and try and understand it. Underline important words, key elements and memorise them.
Then move on to the books AK Jain will not suffice, it doesnt cover everything, many facts of important cases are distorted. If you want to refer to AK Jain, go ahead, it doesnt cover everything, do not blame anyone else for your loss.
Avtar Singh on the other hand would be a better option. i have read both AK Jain and Avtar Singh, and Avtar Singh is not difficult to understand. The relevant chapters in Avtar Singh correspond to the relevant sections of the syllabus, for e.g. Section 10 of the syllabus would be chapter 10 in Avtar Singh.
Read the evidence act carefully, study hard, remember case laws, and your sections.

Code of Criminal Procedure-I
THE SYLLABUS FOR CrPC-I
I. Introduction
a. Definitions
b. Constitution and powers of Criminal Courts and Offices
II. Provisions for Investigations
a. Arrest and Bail provisions
b.Information to the Police and their powers to investigate
III. Process to Compel Appearance and Production of things
a. Summons for Appearance
b.Warrant of arrest
c. Proclamation and attachment

g.General provisions as to search
h.Miscellaneous
IV. Proceedings before Magistrate
a. Conditions requisite for initiation of proceedings
b.Complaints to Magistrates
c. Commencement of proceedings before Magistrates
d.Security Proceedings
This is the portion where we all can worship Mr. A.K. Jain. This would be an extremely helpful book, it isn't time consuming at all. Though it may seem as though it is.
For CrPc, this is how one should go about it.
1. read the bare act thoroughly, each and every word of the section is important. if you have understood the bare act and you manage to remember the relevant portions, then 90% of your work is done. 10% that is left is just your case laws. That can be done from the class notes/AKJain/RV Kelkar/Rattan Lal Dhiraj Lal/Sarkar
2. Start with the books, either AKJ or RV Kelkar would suffice. RV Kelkar is a good book and it may seem to be extremely exhaustive and quite vast, thats why many of us prefer AKJ over it.
CrPC is one of the easiest subjects that can be done from the bare act itself, if one has the patience to go through every section and learn the key elements.

First Unit
The portions of the first unit part (a) are given and explained extremely well in C.K. Takwani (personal reccomendation from my side is to study from this book, to look at any other text would be suicidal)
Foreign Judgment: this portion can be done from A.K. Jain (if there is paucity of time, if not, C.K. Takwani)
Part (b) of Unit-I, This SHOULD be done from C.K. Takwani ONLY, A.K. Jain WILL NOT SUFFICE. Those persons in possession of Belu Ma'ams notes can additionally refer to them, for easier understanding. Personal reccomendation would be to read Maam's notes once and then study from Takwani. This topic was dealt in great details in class.
Unit-II
As far as this unit is concerned, it may be a little complicated for people to understand if they haven't been regularly attending the lectures.
Chapters 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, of C.K. Takwani cover these portions. I personally did few portions exclusively from the Bare Act, and supplemented the same with the cases. But, many students may find it difficult to understand the bare text, as there are many rules to the orders, and some of the rules are drafted in such a manner that they come across to be very lengthy. Therefore, ultimately there wont be any other saving grace apart from C.K. Takwani.
Unit-III
This unit was dealt dually by Mr. Singhla and Belu Ma'am. For those who attended all the lectures, must have realised the striking similarity in what was dictated in class and the text in C.K. Takwani. So for the part of commissions etc. (portion dealt with by the guest lecturer) should be done through Takeani, otherwise, if you have patience, use the Bare Act, it a little tedious but easy to understand. Everything is given in that.
Rest of the portions were dealt extremely well by Belu Maam, her class notes on Order 9 should be enough, and for interim orders and interlocutory orders, her class notes are good, they give you a very strong base. If you dont have them study from C.K. Takwani. The topics arent tough, and if you remember your torts class (ironically taught by Maam herself) and u ahave your notes, you might be able to understand this topic easily. Also for those who remember their Specific Relief Act, it shouldn't be a tough job. Easy topics.
Unit-IV
This is the last unit. This unit is EXTREMELY important. Summary Procedure is a "must do". A question will come on it. (As per my belief and guess work). B,C,D,E, of this unit should be done from Takwani, and part 'a' can be done from the bare text.

Introduction
This blog is to let everyone know what books to pick up and where to study from. It would definitely be a sincere effort from my side to update and edit the blog as often as possible. Books you may refer to might be different from what I personally may pick up, differences would creep in. Suggestions are most welcome, and anyone who wishes to comment or tell others where a topic may be given in a better manner may post their comments.
DO NOT CALL ME UP. I AM NOT GOING TO ENTERTAIN ANY CALLS DURING EXAMS. NO MATTER HOW ARROGANT I SOUND, I NEED MY TIME SPACE AND ENERGY, WHICH I SHALL NOT DISSIPATE ON MEANINGLESS CALLS.
