This is G.S. Alag's Business Studies — A Textbook for CBSE Class XII, published by P.P. Publications as a two-book set, 17th Revised Edition 2026. It is an English medium (Roman script) book — the complete text, case studies, questions and marking schemes are in English, and there is no Hindi content in it. It is prepared for the CBSE Class 12 business studies examination.
The set follows the full course across both parts. Part A, Principles and Functions of Management, covers nature and significance of management, principles of management, business environment, planning, organising, staffing, directing and controlling. Part B, Business Finance and Marketing, covers financial management, financial markets, marketing management and consumer protection. Both books are needed for the complete syllabus.
Business studies is a subject where students know the content and still lose marks, because the paper rewards a specific answer shape — the right number of points, stated under the right headings, in the syllabus's own terms. This set addresses that directly. The mind maps compress each chapter into the structure an answer should follow, which is what makes last-week revision possible in a subject with this much theory. The pictorial based MCQs match the objective section of the current paper, where a question is set on a diagram or an image rather than a statement. And the sample question paper comes with its marking scheme, which is the most useful single item in a book of this kind — it shows exactly where the marks are allotted within an answer, not merely whether the answer is right.
QR codes give access to supporting material. The set is used alongside the prescribed NCERT Class 12 business studies textbooks, which remain the source the board sets its questions on.
