If the Property to be transferred is purchased by you, you have all rights to transfer it to your minor son during your life time. It may be through a gift deed or by the second method as mentioned by you. You have mentioned that we have purchased the property, please clarify that the property is in the sole name of yours or with some other co-owner.

Hi Rajendra Sir,

Thanks a lot for the information.
All property are in my name only.

Adding to this if the gift deed is done do we need any special clause in the deed so that during divorce it should not be moved by my 2nd wife or any claim should be done on those
