organic chemistry books published in India

I took another look at Chatterjee's organic chemistry book. MF is
correct in his opinion that the questions are mostly "mark and copy"
type questions, even the ones cited as coming from particular exams.

I think you will find Dumas and Victor Meyer method of determining
molecular weights of organic compounds in Chatterjee's book in the
initial chapters. Did you find how Liebig and Wohler determined the
molecular weight of benzaldehyde?
If AA remembers I asked in sci.chem about the origin of "styx" numbers
and he said he will take a look at Lipscomb's book on boron hydrides.
Did you get any hint on the choice of "s,t,y,x" from Lipscomb's book,
may be in its footnotes?
