Usually, when someone wants to invest in Mutual Funds, they are confused if they should take a SIP route or a lump sum. Let’s make it simple for you! Investors who are planning to invest in debt funds should ideally choose a one-time payment mode, that is a lump sum mode of investment. It is always wise to invest for a shorter duration with easy liquidity.
For a lump sum investment, debt funds are a better option as compared to Equity Mutual Funds. A lump sum route reduces the risk of change in interest rate as well as gives a better return in comparison to fixed deposits (FDs). Ideally, when you invest in debt funds taking a lump sum route, it solves two issues- one is tax benefits and other is re-investment risk.
During the rising interest rates, it is a good time to take a lump sum route in debt oriented funds with a Portfolio of high-quality Bonds. These funds are usually suitable for people who have idle savings and want to invest for optimal returns. Any number of lump sum payments can be made in a Mutual Fund.
A lump sum investment works well as compared to a systematic Investment plan- only if invested during the market slump or at lower valuations. However, lump sum Investing may not work if one is overinvesting when the market valuations are stretched or when the markets correct sharply in the early phase of your investment.

Fund Returns- A food should have a good track record. Go for a fund house that has a strong history of delivering consistent performance. Check the fund’s past 1, 3 and 5 year return and if it is able to beat its benchmark or not.
Match Time Horizons- Debt funds offer diverse choices of investment with its respective maturity period. Investors need to decide investment based on their maturity period, while they can also compare with other debt fund instruments and select the one that suits the best for their plan. For example, if you are looking at the time frame of one-year Investment plan then, a short term debt fund can ideally suit.
Expense Ratio- An important factor to be considered in debt funds is its expense ratio. A higher expense ratio creates a larger impact on the funds' performance. For example, Liquid Funds have the lowest expense ratios which are up to 50 bps (BPS is a unit to measure interest rates wherein one bps is equal to 1/100th of 1%) Whereas, other debt funds could charge up to 150 bps. So to make a choice between one debt mutual fund, it is important to consider the management fee or the fund running expense.
