Yes, the JEE preparation books are more than enough for IISER. All the exams for IISERs are designed to test very basic concepts. Most questions are on the easier side if you are preparing for JEE. -
Its good to hear that you are preparing for IISER. See, first, I will recommend you to study for JEE Advanced because if you crack it then you can directly get a seat in IISC and IISER of your choice and even IIST adding to it, you can go for NEST if you are interested for research NISER and DM CBS selects students from there and preparation is same as JEE Advanced.
Best of luck.

Yes, while filling out the IISER Decision Making Form, it is absolutely necessary to pay the Seat Acceptance Fee (SAF).
