This discussion clarifies the rules and charges for transferring a flat via gift deed within a blood relation in a UP housing society. While societies may charge transfer fees, the legal cap in Uttar Pradesh is Rs 25,000, or 2.5% of the flat's value, typically paid by the buyer. Importantly, transfers within the immediate family are often exempt from these fees according to society by-laws and UP regulations. If a society demands excessive charges, you can legally refuse and issue a notice.
