first of all, you should let us know your disposable income, that is the amount you have on hand after considerting your normal and excigency expenditure
I would advise NSC investment of around 10000/-
Then Probably PPF 5000/- ( @8.5% interest) if you are patient investor as this will be blocked for 16 years
