For Analog circuits - Sedra & Smith

For Engineering mathematics- R.K kanodia

For Industrial instrumentation- A.K Sawhney

For Systems and signals - Willsky

For Control systems - Manke

For Digital circuits - Morris Mano or Toci

For Communication circuits- Singh and Sapre

If possible do purchase the handwritten notes of every subject just for consultation of curriculum of every subject. (As hand written notes are strictly according to gate syallabus of each subject). And do practice each and every problem in CONVENTIONAL manner. It will help you alot in eliminating minor errors while solving problems which are very critical in deciding your AIR in GATE.

Some of the books that can be referred are

Analog circuits
Sidra & Smith

Engineering Mathematics
R.K Kanodia

Industrial Instrumentation
A.K Swahney

Control Systems
Manke

Digital Circuits
