Genesis Notebook: Structured UPSC Note-Making for Updated and Revision-Ready Notes

sfg-2026

Dear Students,

One realisation that comes a little late in most UPSC journeys is this: the real challenge is not making notes, but updating and revising them without starting from scratch every few months.

The syllabus largely remains the same, but you don’t. Your understanding deepens, examples improve, and current affairs keep adding new layers. Unfortunately, most notebooks stay exactly where they began.

This gap creates a silent problem in preparation. Aspirants end up rewriting notes repeatedly, maintaining multiple notebooks, or depending on loose sheets for value addition. Over time, revision becomes scattered, inefficient, and exhausting.

UPSC preparation is dynamic — but our notebooks are usually static.
This exact gap is what led to the creation of Genesis Notebook.

Genesis Notebook is designed from a note-making perspective that respects how preparation actually unfolds over months and years.

Each page is thoughtfully divided into two parts. The main two-third space is meant for writing core concepts clearly and cleanly. The one-third side margin is intentionally left for growth. As your preparation matures, this margin becomes the space where better definitions, sharper examples, relevant case studies, and current affairs linkages naturally find their place.

Instead of rewriting notes, you simply build on what already exists.

Most aspirants, at some stage, end up managing:

  • one notebook for basic concepts,
  • another for current affairs,
  • and several loose sheets for value addition.

Genesis Notebook gently brings all of this together on the same page. When used consistently, it gradually becomes your master notebook — not because it forces a method, but because it aligns with habit and revision cycles.

It is a small tool, but one designed with a deep understanding of the UPSC preparation journey.

What is Genesis Notebook?

Genesis Notebook is a structured, revision-friendly notebook created specifically for UPSC aspirants. It allows notes on a single topic to evolve over time without being rewritten.

You write core concepts once in the two-third main space. During revision, instead of starting fresh, you use the side margin to add refined definitions, updated examples, current affairs linkages, and case studies. This way, your notes mature on the same page as your understanding improves.

The result is faster revision, better integration of content, and more exam-oriented preparation.
