Hello Aspirant,

Taking coaching is totally your decision.Tbere are many students who crack IIT JEE without coaching too (but very less).Although cracking an entrance exam like JEE needs guidance.But you can prepare yourself by following standard books.
Solve past years questions and NCERT exemplar and then move to these books.

Book for Physics :
  • HC Verma Concepts of Physics Vol I and II
  • D.C. Pandey
  • Halliday, Resnick & Walker - Fundamentals of Physics
  • I.E. Irodov - Problems in General Physics

Books for Chemistry :
Organic Chemistry
  • O.P. Tandon
  • Organic Chemistry by MORRISON & BOYD

Inorganic Chemistry
  • J.D. Lee
  • O.P. Tandon

Books for Mathematics :
  • RD Sharma Maths XI & XII
  • Hall Knight
  • S. L. Loney
  • Tata McGraw Hill (TMH)
  • M.L. Khanna

I hope this helps.

Hello Gaurav,
Yoy can prepare by your self for IIT without attending any coaching class in 12th,but it would require an efficient time management and a lot of hardwork.
As far as the material is concerned,don't go for too many books,just one book and NCERT book for every subject is sufficient with solving previous year papers.

Physics: Concepts of physics by H.C. Verma
Maths: S.L. Loney
Chemistry: M.S. Chouhan for Organic Chemistry,Narendra Awasthi for Physical Chemistry,JD Lee for inorganic
You can also watch video lectures for free online.
