Boss, If you are looking for safety & debt instrument's, look no further than the post office. It give one of the best return's with rock solid safety.
14 lakhs is serious money. My suggestion would be invest 12 lakhs in post office and buy some good equity shares for the balance 2 lakhs.

Post office senior citizen scheme has lock in of 5 years,which does not match with your time horizon. There is a penalty of 1% if withdrawn after 2 years. The MIP can be good solution for you. MIP scheme of Mutual Fund invests 15 to25 % in Equity and balance in debt market. you can expect 10% return from this schemes. If you want 100% safety than FDs will the right match for you. mail me if you are residing near by Mumbai at pankaaj.maalde@rediffmail.com

Don't invest in mf and shares, u will get frustration, sleepless nights and only half the money after 2-3 yrs.
better invest in real estate with little broader span, u will always be happy
Rest is your decision after all its your money
