Mutual Funds Sahi Hai?

Narendra aims to accumulate enough to make the down payment for his dream house. He started an SIP in some Mutual Fund schemes. Though he was falling a tad short, he was comfortable with what he had accrued.

He got a pleasant surprise when his company announced a big cash reward for some star employees, and he was one of them.

While the house purchase would take some time, he wasn’t sure how long. The payment may also be scheduled over a period.

What could he do with the money?

He could consider Liquid Mutual Funds as they are ideally suitable when money is required in a short period, and the time period is uncertain. It also gives the flexibility to take out even part of the money or whole of it whenever required.

So there are ample Mutual Fund schemes for both long term, and short term goals.
