SIP is the best method to invest in mutual funds when markets are erratic and the bottom has not yet formed.However, because this is a Rs 15 lakh lump sum investment, I would advise parking the funds in a liquid fund or an ultra-short-term fund and concurrently placing a Systematic Transfer Plan (STP) order for a fixed amount in a small-cap fund, which will provide the investor with the benefit of rupee cost averaging.The STP order can be spread out over a period of 12 to 15 months.However, you must remember that an STP can only be done from one mutual fund (debt fund) to another (equity fund) if they belong to the same AMC or mutual fund house.AMCs that can be considered for liquid funds and then small-cap schemes are as follows:-HDFC Liquid Fund and HDFC Small-Cap Fund-Nippon Liquid Fund and Nippon Small-Cap Fund-Kotak Liquid Fund and Kotak Small-Cap FundIf you have any mutual fund queries, message ET Mutual Funds on Facebook/Twitter.
