no laptop is not necessary for any branch for the first year but if you are very curious then it is your choice

when your studies begin the books would be suggested or if you know some senior you can get it from them

or you would have to buy it get it

dont worry

from where I can buy those ??
could you please tell me the approximate price for all the accessories ?? :(
the prices vary for the books and only those who are in touch with it can tell it exactly
you should keep sufficient money around 2 thousands for the books (it is my guess)
it would be best if you or any of your friends or relatives here have atm cards so that you can deposit your money safely and get it only when required
