need help about mercentile law

[Muhammad Adnan Anwar]

please any senior member guide me about mercantile law
is this subject is scoring or not
and about paper pattern
i am very confuse about this subject

[FarazAli]

you first need to go through the past papers.pattern of this paper has been different in different years. from 2002 to 2008 majority of the questions were based on cases.from 2009 onwards questions ve been asked from theory.and as far as i know it has been scoring from 2009.candidates ve even secured more than 80 marks. one of my friend,who has done icma and who revised this subject during the exam days,was able to obtain 68 marks in 2010. so u need to decide in the light of above points.

[FarazAli]

for your convenience i m copying and pasting the guidance provided by ASP Kamran Adil.

Mercantile Law (ASP Kamran Adil)
Assalam-o-Alikum!

" In my view, for a general study it is enough to go through a general book first like that of Cheema on Mercantile law, for the very first thing to do is to cover all the topics. This should be followed by a detailed study of specific questions and solving of the past papers should be the last thing. Anyhow, to enhance academic quality, you are further advised to go through Schukla's Mercantile law.

Now a word about the contents of ML. My perusal of the past papers has revealed that the subject caters to six laws namely:

1. Law of Contract;
2. Law of Sale of Goods;
3. Company Law;
4. Law of Partnership;
5. Law of insurance;
6. Law of Negotiable Instruments.

Moreover, you can and you should, for the sake of better approach also see the original statutes in which all these law are codified. Finally you should start with law of Contract, which is mother of all the laws stated above."

You should learn by rote irfan Iqbal's book which he has written for bcom and then you should consult shukla. Anyhow this subject is scoring bcz i got 63 marks in 2010 i only revised it in papers.
