SCMPE – Full Theory of Module with coloured book

Details

More than any other practice, solving a case study is the most imperative stepping stone for clearing the SCMPE paper. Being the second and updated version of the Case study and theory book, this case study book covers each type of business and each aspect of every business. After learning practical concepts and theoretical frameworks of each topic, students must know how to apply them to various businesses efficiently from their SCMPE Regular course.

This book is a COLOURED book for easy separation of the 12 chapters accompanied by case studies. Every case studies except those covered in RTP’s will be here.

Let’s take you through a tour of this unique coloured book:

  1. Each of the 12 chapters covers theory and related case studies
  2. Every Case Study is the book i.e. All Past, Present and Anticipated Case Studies. These will cover every type of business and each aspect of the business.
  3. The theory is cut down in simple language, for simplified understanding by the students. No complex explanation is provided, everything is reduced to important pointers.
  4. With the detailed revision, we have rectified any mistakes which were missed by the  ICAI’s study material
  5. We update the book regularly, therefore any new concept introduced by ICAI or the business sector that holds relevance in your exam is refurbished in the book.
  6. The coloured book holds an attractive and efficient Colour Scheme for the elements of the book. Questions are printed in Brown, answers in Blue, First heading in Red, Subheading in Green, Sub-Sub heading or important points in Black. This demarcates the content according to categories, making it readable and simplified for last-minute revision.
  7. To further break down the heavy content, paragraph numbers given to big case studies. When the content is divided into smaller parts, the question appears less lengthy.
  8. Master Index is given right in the beginning for easy and last-minute referrals
