Hey folks 👋
Apart from my emergency fund in FD, I currently have around ₹30L surplus cash that I want to invest.
Given that the market is near all-time highs, I’ve started cautiously with an HDFC Nifty 50 Index Fund and don’t want to deploy everything at once.
Wanted your advice on:

Where’s the best place to park free cash short-term? (liquid / overnight funds?)

Does it make sense to park money in liquid funds and STP into equity MFs gradually?

Any good MF suggestions for someone relatively
