    Which are the best funds to invest for 10 months? Will short term debt funds provide good returns? -- Peeyush Deoliya

    Shifali Satsangee
    , Founder & CEO, Funds Ve'daa, responds:

    Given your time horizon of 10 months, you could look at the ultra short term category of funds with very low maturity profile.

    Most of the debt fund rally is behind us. An investor could look at short term accrual based debt funds, with an ideal time horizon of three years for better tax-efficient and inflation-adjusted returns.
