Hello Rahul.

JEE mains and advance are two of most reputed and important engineering entrance exams.To be honest,mains is not difficult unlike advance.So when it comes to preparation,NCERT is good for mains in PCM.For chemistry,I would say NCERT is necessary,for physics H.C.Verma is best and for maths,you can prepare with R.D.Sharma.But for advance preparation it's not at all enough.For chemistry,I would suggest M S Chouhan for organic,Narendra Avasthi for physical and v.k.jaiswal for inorganic.For maths,you should try vikas gupta and pankaj joshi.It's a very good book for maths practice of advance level.For physics,you should practice with Cengage,D.C pandey and if you want some very high level physics Irodov is always there but in my opinion Irodov is not needed.The other two are enough.Hope these books will help you in your preparation.

Good Luck!
