Gupta/Kumar/Sharma is the "translator" between classical thinking and quantum weirdness. Griffiths is for those who already have a physics intuition. Zettili is for problem-crunching warriors. For an Indian undergraduate, the GKS book is the ideal starting point.

Moving beyond wave mechanics, the book transitions into the formalism of operators. The treatment of Hermitian operators, commutation relations, and the Uncertainty Principle is rigorous. The authors excel at linking these abstract operators to physical observables, a concept students quantum mechanics by gupta kumar sharma
