The whole of Part A, taught as one continuous argument. What management is and why it matters · the principles Fayol and Taylor left us · the environment a firm actually operates in · and then the five functions in the order a manager performs them — plan → organise → staff → direct → control — closing the loop back to planning at the end.
How a firm raises and deploys money, and how it reaches the person who will buy from it. Financial management and the three financial decisions · the money and capital markets, the stock exchange and SEBI · the marketing mix · and the consumer's protection under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019.
Financial Markets is still examinable, but it is no longer in the NCERT book. NCERT rationalised the chapter out of Business Studies Part 2 — the 2026-27 reprint contains only three chapters (Financial Management, Marketing, Consumer Protection). The CBSE curriculum document for 2026-27, however, still lists Unit 10 · Financial Markets and still examines it inside the 15 marks it shares with Financial Management.
So Chapter 10 in these decks is built from the CBSE curriculum document and from current market practice rather than from the textbook. Anything in it that has moved on since the old textbook — the settlement cycle, SEBI's powers — is dated on the slide.
