Seventh Semester
Before you read this blog entry be sure to click on the adds a couple of times. That would be one way of repayment for me, for the genuine effort I make in writing this blog. Children please click on the adds.
Seventh Semester - dedicated to querist Ms. Govil and first follower Ms. Pradeep.
Land Laws (One book depends upon who is teaching you the subject)
First you need ML Upadhyay's book on Law, poverty and development to understand the zamindari system, the benami transaction etc. and how the overall changes came about in the area of ownership of land. Remember it is not a fundamental right to own property, but a constitutional right i.e. read Article XXX (One brownie point for anyone who tells me the correct article number- clue its somewhere after 299 but before 301)
Unit-I all from ML Upadhyay's book.
Unit-II from the bare act.. and there are some class notes as well on this. But you should know the bare act in and out for this unit, especially the sections related to land acquisition proceedings, all kind of notifications that come in the proceedings, sections related to compensation etc. Remember how the Government took away the land for the Metro lines? Thats where this will all fall into place-acquisition of land for public purpose. Its all legal honey! Unless they dont follow the procedure under the Act. Which will make it pretty much illegal. So these are the kind of questions that you can expect in the exam. Very predictable. You gotta do this part well because maximum number of questions come from here.
Unit-III and IV --for rent law you will be asked to buy a book called jaspal singh for delhi rent act- which is just worth borrowing from your seniors. just borrow it. There is nothing that has really happened in the rent act, so the new edition that you might be asked to get wont really have anything new in it, just addition of some cases. just borrow it. A K Jain will do wonders for this unit. what is important is the grounds for eviction under section 14 which will definitely come in the paper. be sure to do that well. And ofcourse the definitions clause is also important. nothing worth dying for.
But remember this subject even the nerd of the class can fail, because this is IPU and everything is so damn unpredictable.
LET - law of emerging technology
I <3 this subject. It is very vague. There is no book for this subject. Just a lot of notes and well, if you enjoy even one percent of what is in this subject you can do wonders. I had a genuine interest in this subject so i read a lot of wikipedia and random stuff on the internet for this.
Unit-I
Farooq ahmad (photocopy relevant chapter) and vakul sharma is just what you need. What you should know is how online contracts work, the liability and ofcourse data encryption, which is most likely to go over your head the first time you read it. But read it again and you'll get 1% of it, read it again and you'll get it. Be sure to learn the encryption diagram!! Brownie point for exams!!
Unit-II
IPC bare act, and just pick up your IPC book for this part of the syllabus. This stuff you did it in second year and you should know it by now. Like Ranjit D Udeshi and millers test etc. - anything satisfying prurient interest of man not for educational scientific purpose or a work of art is obscene - simple concepts very scoring
Unit-III
very vague- just do it on google.. read stuff about genes modification new technology- i was a science student, i loved biology, this part came naturally to me and i could understand even the vaguest questions asked by the faculty in the exam, but that was me- for you just develop a slight interest in clones etc and i will try to figure my notes out for you -- and if you do get them -- click on the adds!
Unit-IV
for this you need few bare acts- just print it from google! prasar bharti, cable tv, trai etc. just read it.. nothing great.. i studied them in the car before giving the paper (i know its not believable but i am human too)
IPR (I LOVE IT)
bare acts are so impt. course under the units is the same. you should know the bare acts at the back of your hand. trust me, if you get the bare act, you dont need the text book, and what i am saying is not like oh learn the section verbatim and you'll be cool. no. you wont be. you'll probably fail. you should understand the sections. the essence of the section its implications etc. you'll be safe then. understand the sections.
after which a k jain is a good buy for the case laws, and BL wadhera has some good practical questions after every chapter which will enhance your understanding.
Labour Law
the bare acts should be one of the base books, after which just get both the parts of labour law a k jain for this. but for standing orders, you will need a part of the photocopy of a book called s n mishra.
if you are feeling nerdy read s n mishra in its entirety, its more of a bare act-fat one at that.. just the bare acts and case laws from a k jain will do.. a k jain is good for this subject..
Environmental law
Bare acts are very important- once u read them you'll know that there are hardly any differences between the air act and the water act.. essence is the same just the section numbers are different.. so learn one bare act and just know the corresponding section numbers from the other act.
a k jain is wonderful it will do. there is no other book that will help, no s c tripathi, no chaturvedi etc. Divan and Rosencranz is for the intellectuals, not for IPU exams. It is an awesome book, but it is for intellectuals.
Tax Law
Singhania for income tax and my notes. thats all you need. my notes pretty much will make you pass. sighania is very important.
So kids, click on the adds, make me earn for the effort and the free advise i give you. Ms. Govil 20 clicks. Ms. Pradeep 10 clicks. Please click. :)

Apologies
I know this blog hasnt been updated on many semesters. Just mail me the syllabus for whichever semester, and I'll make a blog entry for that semester.
For 5th year students trying to chose their optional subjects
All right, I have been receiving quite a few queries from current fifth year students who cant understand what subjects to take as their optionals in the 5th year.
Here is free advise like always:
Criminology:
This subject is offered by all the affiliated law schools. Hence, more competition, but makes the exam questions predictable. The syllabus is awesome for avid readers and who have a general liking or interest in this subject. The syllabus is simple and based on how perceptive and smart you are in understanding the various theories, or how well you can rote learn the subject. So, if you are good at mugging up theories, choose this. But if you enjoy the subject, criminology is a breather. It is scoring for sure, but unpredictable also. You must have heard the story of my batch and the petition that we filed in 2010.
Banking:
Simple subject, lot of law. Not a technical subject, it is extremely simple and involves reading a few sections from different bare acts. This subject is also scoring. It is a good choice if your grasp over Economics-II was good. There are simple concepts and extremely predictable questions.
Indirect Tax:
I didn't take this subject. But my batchmates who did, cried. They cried because the paper was out of syllabus too technical and it was just too unexpected. Mainly because they didnt study what was asked in the paper. It is a technical subject. It is scoring, but if you want to take it because you think you will learn something about tax law, then forget it. The knowledge imparted through the miniscule yet massive syllabus is nothing at all to help you. Though the syllabus is tiny, the volumes that you might cram up are massive. However, this subject is known as a scoring one (especially after kids cry after giving the paper-dont ask me how it happened). But, yes there are too many definitions to learn, you cant study this subject the night before the paper, you will almost certainly cry or have a nervous breakdown. It is technical with hardly any legal aptitude.
For indirect tax, I might have a biased opinion based on what I saw. It is possible the same thing doesn't happen with you. I didn't take this subject, so you can ask someone who did for a fairer insight.
