In midst of a world-wide financial crisis, how much sense does it make to invest into equities, directly or indirectly. If the Indian investors were that confident about the market the sensex would have been doing better!

I'd say govt. bonds are the best right now.

If you looking at making money then, you might want to jump into the market directly. [keeping your fingers crossed]

Well, it all depends on your time-horizon and portfolio.
I am not saying to invest all your money into equities. An ideal portfolio is one which is not dependent on the market conditions and has the correct allocation of equity and debt. Equity/stocks work best if the time-horizon for investing is long term (say 8-10 years). Also, rather than putting all the money in one go, its always better to systematically invest a small amount at regular intervals to average out the buying cost.
