Gokul Sinha · 2009
70/100
👍 Worth It

Forty-plus years of teaching experience show in Sinha's structured approach — 172 worked examples is a real number, and the India-specific company data makes it far more useful for its target students than a generic Western textbook would be. The regional focus and aging 2009 edition are genuine limitations outside that audience, but for undergraduate and postgraduate Commerce students in India this earns its place on the shelf.
