Not benami, provided:
The land is in her name
The house is also constructed in her name
The money is properly documented as a gift.

When you gift, it is her property. There is no question of being a benami.

You can gift an amount to her, it will be her property and the land is in her name. So it does not mean benami.

Sudhir Kumar, Advocate (Expert) 04 January 2026
Benami means buying property for non-existing persons
