Whats your advice. Which source would be sufficient.
I also got MGMAT IR section (it doesnot have problems though)

Its not mandatory, OG13 + GMAT Prep Q Bank + MGMAT Tests + MGMAT Q Bank should be sufficient.

I would suggest you spend 1 or 2 days on IR i.e 4 to 6 hours. I used the sample questions in MBA.com and the ones available in GMATPrep software and scored a 6/8. Understand how the 4 types of questions are framed and look for quickest way to solve the problems. For some questions such as Graphical rep/tabular form you don't need to read the complete question or intro details that would be given. You can look at the table/picture and just reading the question part alone is suffice to answer it. These are the two important things to know - where you should spend time reading the complete question and where you don't need to. If you look at the samples, it depends entirely on the questions so spending too much time or solving too many problems in IR is useless.
