PPDS has undergone lots of changes since 3.1

In Mumbai, I think SAP itself conducts trainings through its Education Services partners like Siemens at the PrabhaDevi office. (check http://www.sap.com/india/company/index.epx)

The training on PPDS is very regularly done there (I myself went through PPDS training there many years ago)

I dont think it is worth reading through pdf without an IDES system to get a hands-on feel, which I am sure SAP Education services can do. You can do a quick google search on SAP Education services in Mumbai.

you can also use a few books -

http://www.amazon.com/Production-Planning-SAP-APO-PP-DS/dp/1592291139/ref=pd_sim_dbs_b_title_2/104-8...

http://www.amazon.com/Supply-Chain-Management-APO-Implementation/dp/3540260293/ref=pd_sim_dbs_b_titl...

not as good as hands on experience in a system but these books give a better perspective
