Book Recommendations: For a new Advocate
Read grammar books. Even some of the best Indian lawyers write poor prose. Start with Strunk and White’s Elements of Style. Read Orwell’s Politics and the English Language essay. Also, read American judgments to know how to write well.

PSUs require minimum UG score and then a CLAT PG scores, a Good CV and interview. So irrespective of whether you have done masters or not, CLAT is mandatory. Also, an under 50 rank is preferred.

As a back-up for PSU recruitment, then sure.

Read The Devil's Advocate by Iain Morley KC. Unlikely to be of immediate use, but a good book nonetheless which will be quite useful later down the road
