  1. If long term is about 10 year aways you can park a portion of the money say about 30% in tax-free bonds with cumulative option (some have buy-back option after 5 years too). This can be a tax efficient debt component.

    You can park rest of the money in a liquid fund and start a systematic transfer plan to about 2 mutual funds: one balanced fund, and one large-& mid-cap fund.
    The funds can be transferred each month or even more frequently if possible., The entire transfer can be done in about 6 months time.
    As your goal approaches you can systematically withdraw from the equity funds back to the liquid fund or push into a FD.
