Gift deed or sale deed

Dear Sir/Madam,

i have purchased a property(FLAT) in the name of my cousin brother in 2004 in the city of Pune,Maharshtra, which i wish to transfer in my name & my wife's name.The flat does not have any loan on it.

I wish to know that which is the better option while transferring the property in our name ..Is a GIFT DEED relevant or Shall we go for a SALE DEED ?... In both the cases the consideration value will be Rs 0 and i am ready to pay the stamp duty as per governments rules and regulations

please suggest and reply with expert comments

Regards

Sir, Gift deed is better only if there is love and affection, because it can be challenged if the circumstances does no justify the love and affection ... Warn Regards Kapil Chandna Advocate 9899011450

Prefer sale deed.

Avoid Zero value.
