Check out more RBI Grade B Exam Content including questions and free notes on our facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/rbi2016 An Introduction to RBI GRADE B PHASE-2 examination. The video explains what books to read for the RBI main exam and also for optional -- finance and management. Books for RBI: Economic and Social Issues: Growth and development- Measurement of growth and national income accounting- Ramesh Singh, NCERT Class XII Macroeconomics. Poverty alleviation and employment generation in India, sustainable development and environmental issues, human development- health, education, social sectors- all these can be covered through Uma Kapila (performance and policies). there are many books by uma kapila. No need to refer all of them. -- “an uncertain glory” by amartya sen. Economic reforms in India- Uma Kapila, Ramesh singh, NCERT “indian economic development” of class XI Monetary and Fiscal policy- Ramesh singh + NCERT “introductory macroeconomics” of class XII Liberalization, Privatization and Globalization- can be covered through Uma Kapila, Ramesh singh and NCERT. No need to refer anything else. International economic institutions- no book provides a comprehensive list of all institutions, their features and functions. I will come out with comprehensive material for this area. Social structure in India- CN Shankara Rao is not a good book to refer as it provides theoretical models for understanding social structure in India. Those models and theories are not asked in the exam and are not expected to be asked. It is better to refer to the book “social problems in india” by ram ahuja. Indian political system- Questions asked this year from this area required good understanding of constitution of India. It can be covered through the book, “Indian Polity” by Laxmikanth. There are other more detailed books but they are not required. This book itself will take a long time to memorize. Finance and Management: Regulators of banks and FIs- no book provides comprehensive data on regulators. Ramesh Singh covers some aspects of this topic. RBI- functions- Can be covered along with the above topic. Financial Institutions- Can be covered along with the first topic. Bharati V pathak and M Y KHAN are two good books to refer. However, they are very detailed and contain various topics which are not required. Financial markets- Primary and secondary markets, instruments etc covered under B V Pathak and M Y KHAN All other topics are also covered under 3 books- Pathak, Khan and Ramesh Singh This year, two 5 markers were asked from core finance. They can be covered through “fundamentals of Financial Management” by R P Rustagi and ratios can be covered through “analysis of financial statements” by T S Grewal. Its first time that these kind of questions have been asked. So next year, tougher questions are expected. Management- books: Organization Behavior by S P Robbins; T N Chhabra; HRM by T N Chhabra and Aswathappa. These books are more than enough.
