Hello Sir, I currently have ?5 lacs sitting idle in my savings account and I'm looking for the best way to manage this money considering my financial situation and future needs. Here's a breakdown of my financial state: - Investments: Already invests in equity mutual funds monthly with a long-term horizon. - Insurance: Covered with both health and term insurance. - Emergency Fund: Have 6 months' worth of expenses saved. - Monthly Savings: After all expenses and SIP contributions, I save an additional ?30k each month. - I have an additional ?4 lacs in another bank account for immediate expenses if needed. Personally would like to categorise investments in two categories: - Non-redeemable Mutual Funds: Invest & forget. For a 10-15 year investment horizon. Let compounding do the magic in long term. - Redeemable Mutual Funds: Low to moderate risk. Safer options that offer better returns than FDs, ensuring at least the buying power of the money doesn't decrease / beats inflation. Goals for the Idle Money + additional ?30k savings each month: I might need to access this money in the next 2-5 years, or I might not. I'm considering placing it in redeemable mutual funds category (mentioned above), so I can withdraw if necessary for future expenses. Given this scenario, I’m looking for recommendations on specific types of mutual funds that meet these criteria. Any advice on managing these funds effectively would be greatly appreciated!
Ans: You may consider investing in Equity Savings mutual fund to match your expectations

You can do lumpsum for the idle money and SIP for the monthly saving

They are tax efficient because taxation is like an equity fund although they invest almost equal amount in equity, bonds and arbitrage

Relatively less riskier then the equity funds

*Investments in mutual funds are subject to market risks. Please read all scheme related documents carefully before investing

I have 10 lakh rupees which I want invest in MF. Please suggest some fund for lump sum amount to invest for 1 and half years.
Ans: Dear Friend,
Thank you for your query. 1.5 Years is a very short time for getting high returns. Investing Rs 10 lakhs in mutual funds for a short-term horizon of 1.5 years requires a cautious approach. For such small period, you should look for low to moderate-risk funds that offer stability with reasonable returns, as investing in high-risk equity funds might be too volatile for a short time frame. Since your investment horizon is just 1.5 years, avoid high-risk equity mutual funds as they can be volatile in the short term. Check for exit loads and tax implications before investing. Most short-term capital gains (if you withdraw before 3 years) from debt funds are taxed according to your income tax slab.
You have to evaluate your risk Appetite , Short-Term Debt Funds are invested in government securities, corporate bonds, and other debt instruments with short maturities, offering stability and moderate returns. For a 1.5-year investment, these are ideal as they are less volatile. you can expect 5-7% per annum Returns. You can think of
• ICICI Prudential Short Term Fund
• HDFC Short Term Debt Fund
• Axis Short Term Fund
• ICICI Prudential Corporate Bond Fund
• HDFC Corporate Bond Fund
• Aditya Birla Sun Life Corporate Bond Fund.
