Dear psr, it all depends upon your present preparation levels. You mentioned that 90% of the syllabus is completed. But what about you. What percent of the syllabus completed are you comfortable with?

Since you said that you are studying in a prestigious institute, almost all the important topics must have been completed. So in case if you are not up to the mark with the important topics then there is no point of attending classes for the simple concepts. If this is the case, you can start working yourself and attend the doubt clarification sessions. As you said, since your faculty are really good, it makes sense to spend time with them as much as possible, if not by attending classes, at least by attending the doubt clarification sessions.

this is an excerpt from the article i found on the web

Aim to master around 60 per cent of the syllabus. This is for those students who have been out of touch with JEE for, say the past five or six months. But for those who have been putting in a steady number of hours, it is possible to complete 80 per cent of the syllabus.

What should you study and what should you leave out? That’s simple. Every subject contains some topics that are either difficult to comprehend or that require more time to develop an intuitive insight in order to understand the underlying difficulty in apparently simple forms. Friction, rotational motion, fluid motion, wave mechanics, volumetric analysis, ionic equilibria, hybridisation, heights and distances, combinotonics, inequalities, induction, binomial coefficients are some such topics.

If you haven’t developed a working relationship with them so far, then avoid them for the present. At the same time, if you are comfortable tackling such topics, do include them. They carry a good 12-20 per cent of the total marks. Remember : what is learnt with pleasure is learnt in full measure. As for the easier topics, there’s only one way out: master them. These must be included in your 60 per cent.
