    If you are new, please go with Mutual funds. Select some good MF's like HDFC Top 200, Reliance Equity etc.

    Dont invest directly in equity. Suggest prepare a mock portfolio and allot a dummy amount in it. Moniter the health of the portfolio on monthly basis. Once you are experienced then please invest directly in Market through equity. IPO's are also good to invest in. CIL, SAIL, State bank of punjab and patiala are the ones who have filed DRHP's with SEBI.

    I thing you are ready to start a Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) in a mutual fund. There are numerous mutual fund companies offering some great products for investors. To name a few, you can opt for HDFC Top 200 and start with an SIP of Rs 2000/month.

    A Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) is an investment tool offered by mutual funds to help investors to save regularly. It is just like a recurring deposit (RD) that people generally do with banks and post office where people deposit small amounts each month into their accounts. The difference between RD and SIP is that here your money is invested in mutual funds. Hence in long term horizon the returns are much higher than bank RD’s or post office RD’s.

    Stocks lately have been a little dangerous, you may want to check out Forex markets. They are risky too, but you can make money when they drop.
