Liquid funds are the least risky of all mutual funds because it has been designed—and is meant to operate—as a proxy for your savings bank account.
But with liquid funds giving slightly higher returns than your bank account, this is a good vehicle to park your short-term cash. Additionally, many liquid funds allow you instant redemption and you get your money in half an hour, at most.
