Under Section 123 of the Transfer of Property Act,
A gift of property, which is not registered, is bad in law and cannot pass any title to the donee. Documents should be stamped and registered as required. Mere delivery of possession without a written instrument cannot confer title.

A deed cannot be dispensed with even for a property of small value. Attestation by two witnesses is required. This provision excludes every other mode of transfer and even if the intended donee is put in possession, a gift of property is invalid without a registered instrument.
