    NCERT Books is the starter for JEE preparation this book is short and simple which give the basic and correct concept about the topics and these simple concepts are enough to score decent marks in JEE exam.
    Generally students take light to this book as they are thinking that they are preparing for JEE so they need book which has written "Crack JEE" or any such attractive words and think that this thin book is not enough to crack JEE but they forget that are preparing for JEE not for scientists.

    In NCERT books there are not so many questions for the practice and hence it is not sufficient for all but for you can consider some books to clear your concepts. I'll suggest you to go through these books as most of the questions are from NCERT only in the JEE paper.

    The answer to this question is definitely no. But the mains paper is definitely made considering the NCERT books. The syllabus covered in the NCERT books is the syllabus of mains too.

    Sometimes, in JEE Mains, the questions are directly asked from the books with not changing of the digits, so their NCERT readers get an advantage. This will help you to get a good rank in mains.

    Definitely, they do give you a good start for JEE preparations. In fact, NCERT provides you clear knowledge about the basics you need for the exam.
    NCERTs should be constantly referred to during Class 11th and 12th but concluding on that they are only sufficient for JEE preparations is not utterly correct.

    Dear,
    From my point of view, NCERT books are not sufficient for cracking JEE, you will need some higher books along with NCERT for maths and physics. NCERT is enough for only chemistry.
