Frequently Asked Questions

Is a gift deed mandatory for immovable property?

Yes, under Section 122 of the Transfer of Property Act, a gift of immovable property must be made by a registered instrument signed by the donor and attested by at least two witnesses.

What is the stamp duty for a gift deed in West Bengal?

Stamp duty for gift deeds to family members (spouse, children, parents, siblings) is typically lower — around 2-3% of the property value. For non-relatives, it is higher.

Can a gift deed be challenged after registration?

Yes, a gift deed can be challenged on grounds of fraud, coercion, undue influence, lack of mental capacity, or if the gift was obtained through misrepresentation.

What is the tax on gifts under Income Tax Act?

Gifts from specified relatives are tax-free. Gifts from non-relatives exceeding Rs. 50,000 in a financial year are taxable as income of the recipient under Section 56(2)(x).

Can a gift be revoked after delivery?

A gift once made and accepted cannot be revoked. However, the gift deed may contain a revocation clause for specific conditions. The court can also revoke a gift in certain circumstances.

What is the difference between a gift deed and a sale deed?

A gift deed involves transfer without consideration (monetary payment). A sale deed involves transfer for a price. Gift deeds attract lower stamp duty but have different tax implications.

Can a gift of immovable property be made to a minor?

Yes, a gift can be made to a minor. The minor's natural guardian or a court-appointed guardian must accept the gift on behalf of the minor.

What documents are needed for gift deed registration?
