Hello,

I bought a land on the name of my father. As builder has not given the possession of the land, it can not be registered yet. Hence, we do not have a sales deed yet.

No. Without a sale deed, how did your father gift to you?

Hello,

Did you mean, it is mandatory to have the sales deed of the property before it can be gifted via gift deed?

Thanks in advance!

Yes, without a valid title you can not transfer the plot by way of gift to anyone.

Hello All,

If gift deed is not an option, what are the other possible options?

1. Does it then help, if my father go for registered Will of the plot on my name?

Suggestions would be highly appreciated.
