    Dear you may use these good books to prepare for Geology subject in Indian Forest Service Examination and may score good marks in both papers of geology

    SM Mathur - Physical Geology of India
    Dana and Devis - Structural Geology of Mineraology
    GB Mahapatra - Textbook of Physical Geology
    John D Winter
    SM Sengupta
    Homes book by James Hulton
    Hydrogeology by Karnth

    If you study more for your PG syllabus of this subject then also you may cover about 50% of the syllabus asked in this examination that is why you should focus more on that too but use these books and also give more time for preparation and if possible then try to read each book more than 10 times before examination so you could score more marks and get selected for particular post

    I have attached some question papers also please download and prepare well

    All the best
