Dear aspirant....!!

For petrology :Go for JD WINTER book
For stratigraphy : there's a book called “geodynamic evolution of india” by K. S. VALDIYA, and STRATIGRAPHY OF INDIA by Ravindra kumar.
Paleontology is like SANSKRIT, you have to mug it up,
Books of P. C JAIN AND Ananthraman' s paleontology book will do.
Structural geology : Hakoon Fossen’s book is the best will say it is extraordinary, pdfs are available, if not hardbind book.
Mineralogy : DEXTER PERKINS is the best for all type of entrances, simple language and in depth knowledge. Keep a copy rutley's mineralogy and Dana book.
Also consider Paul. F. Kerr's optical mineralogy also.
For GEOMORPHOLOGY : M. J. Shelby's earth's changing surface.
