Cheers !!

CAT syllabus is segmented into 4 parts- quantitative ability, data interpretation, logical reasoning and verbal ability.
You can join a coaching institute or get material from them as they do keep a structured format of each and every exam with mocks.
For Quant you can refer Arun Sharma and Sarvesh Verma. Just buy one of the above.
For data interpretation you can refer coaching institute material as there aren't many good books available for this particular subject.

For verbal you can refer 'word power and easy' by Norman Lewis.

You can go through this link for topics you need to prepare for CAT.

Read newspaper everyday for verbal ability as it will help in reading comprehension, vocabulary and your reading speed will be enhanced. Also read few more books during the preparation for vocabulary and general awareness (fiction, biographies etc)

And keep taking mock tests and analyse result after every test you take.

All the best!
