A property owned by two brothers in Kharghar, Navi Mumbai, saw one brother transfer his 50% share to the other via a gift deed. The society is requesting a premium for this internal transfer. While a gift deed is the correct legal document for transferring property title, societies may charge transfer fees according to their bylaws. However, they cannot arbitrarily demand money for share transfers between joint members if not permitted by the State Cooperative Societies Act or Rules.
