Hi Kshitij,
I would say CAT being the India's toughest Management exam, with no set pattern, would require more focus & preparation. As every individual is different, the preparation time would vary from person to person. It may take a year long preparation to crack CAT, so to be on safer side you can start your preparation one year ahead
There is no one book which you have to or can refer to, for cracking CAT. You have to consult various books for various sections of CAT. Few of the authors whom you can consult are: Arun sharma for Logical Reasoning and Data Interpretation, O.P. Sinhal books for QA & for verbal ability you should pick up a good dictionary & a Wren & Marten book plus read a lot of Novels & Newspapers. Apart from this for quantitative secession you should also consider reviewing secondary level School books and practice as much as possible.
I would suggest you to go through the link below which has several informative article links about how to crack CAT.
