• For Chemistry especially the organic part and inorganic part comes only from the NCERT books and from the previous year’s papers.
• For Physical Chemistry, you can ask your faculty from the chemistry department to help you with it.
• Moreover, class notes, previous year’s papers, and a good book will set you up properly.
• For Physics HC Verma and DC Pandey are the best books available. The physics department helps you if you ask regarding anything.
• In the first-semester course differential and integral calculus are covered so you don’t have to worry about them.

NIT is a good option and you won’t have anything to lose so it is safe. Just solve a lot of practice papers.
