Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 15 October 2010 This query is : Resolved
Respected sir,

When I was of 20 years before my marriage, my mother was gifted her self acquired property (300 Sq. yds. land + 4 rooms of house)with not an actual intention to gift it to me (my husband knows this fact), but it was for the purpose to get some more time for sale registration on her name as she was insolvent economically at that time. We are 4 sisters, only fist sister not married, and all other three got married and having children, I am third one. After my marriage there was a disputes between my parents and in-laws, I stop going to my matrimonial home, and stop talking to them, now my father has expired, my first sister went to states, my mother become alone with many debts, now she want sell her property which was gifted to me prior to my marriage, she asked me to give my signatures on bond papers to sell that property, but now my husband and in-laws are insisting me to not to give my specimen signatures. If I give my signatures without the knowledge of my husband and in-laws my husband is threatening me that he will go to court, as it was obtained by my mother under undue influence and coercion. I really dont want that property, as I am not at all interested in that property, but I am afraiding from my future personal life, due to this, it will creates lot of disturbances with my husband. Can you suggest me the best solution, what are the remedies available to my mother without my involvement can she revoke the gift deed. 2) what are the ways she can follow to get her property back without my and my husband involvement?

It is not clear whether the gifted property is registered in your name.
If it is registered in your name, then your mother cannot take it back.
If you really do not want that property and if you really want to help your mother, there is no other go than to sign the documents for selling the property.
