Family property

The monetary consideration was there.

Hope you shall take it positvely.

Since you paid all expenses: Sale deed was better option.

Outright sale deed is always better option.

Hope you shall take it positvely. 

 

Consider it from another prespective:

Assuming that the donor {your own father (now estarnged as per your post and may be OP if litigation happens)} did not want any consideration still the preference was sale deed at the most you could have incurred on stamp duty/regsitration charges.

Did you inquire what were the charges in case of sale, as on date of gift?

Usual tactics is that donor canceels the gift deed in O/o same regsitering authority that registered the gift deed.

In your case the donor appeared before registering authortiy to register gift deed.

It otherwise in itself, is a solid evidence.

However the court alone can revoke the gift on merits e,g; coercion, fraud..................

Decision by court of law is pleasure of court of law.

If prospect, threat, fact of litigation is staring at you then it shall be appropriate to discuss in person with a very able counsel of unshakable repute and integrity, specializing in revenue/property/civil matters, at your location and show all docs and evidences on record for a considered opinion, options and merits in each option.

I have wholeheartedly replied to your queries.

Take up further with your own very able counsel of unshakable repute and integrity, specializing in revenue/property/civil matters, at your location and show all docs and evidences on record for a considered opinion, options and merits in each option.
