SIP is better unless you are a salaried employee and your office is asking for Investment proof by Feb 2011.

lock in status of same elss fund after march 2012.

Fidelity Tax - G

3. which of the following are the best core large cap funds with good track record other than the all time best (( hdfctop 200,dsp top 100 and bsl frontline,RRSF Equity)) ? is it hdfc equity? or fidelity equity? or fidelity india growth ?or franklin blue chip? or quantum long term equity?
i'd rank them:
HDFC Equity
Franklin Blue Chip
Quantum LT

Multi-cap - very long term goals spanning 20 yrs n above. SIP route
Balanced - goals spanning 5 yrs and above. SIP route
Debt - MIP/Floating rate. - short term needs.

best wishes.
