As a person, you are not well enough with stock investing, you can go through the mutual fund path. there are multiple choices in front of you. Before start giving an Idea, it is required to know what is your investment horizon and risk profile? If that is is too short, go with a FMP (Fixed Maturity Plan) Mutual fund or a good liquid fund.
