What are some of the least riskiest ways to make money in the stock market apart from shorting deep out of the money options ? I have heard arbitrage trading to be riskless … are there any other such methods where the risk is very low and where we can easily make 5-10% montly ?

Shorting deep out of the money is definitely not the least riskiest. When you short an option, there is an unlimited risk you take, so if there is a big move in the market against you, the deep OTM can cause a huge damage.
If you are looking at making any return above 1% a month, it comes along with risk. I don’t think there is any safe strategy that can make you 5 to 10% monthly.
If you are worried about risk, I guess buying options is a lot more safer, as you know the maximum risk upfront.
