So that i can give some financial support to my only child. Please suggest me one or two options for four to five years horizon. Please help me. Hope u reply me soon.

Allocate a portion of it in blue-chip companies like Reliance Industries, Britannia Industries, Bharti Airtel, M&M, HDFC Bank, TCS, ICICI Bank. One can also look at Nifty ETF as well.
