Documents Required
No specific documents are required in order to draft and execute a gift deed. However, ID proofs of the parties in order to confirm the names and permanent addresses of the donor and donee should be scrutinised. Documents evidencing clear title of the property/house of the donor in question could also be examined as per the facts and circumstances of each case.
Procedure
A gift deed for an immovable or movable property shall be drafted with the help of a lawyer. Gifting is a voluntary action and the gift deed should mention that the donor is gifting such property in question without any coercion or force and by his/her own choice. Acceptance of the donee to receive such gift should also be mentioned in the deed - by way of donee’s signature. A gift deed of an immovable or movable property is to be registered under the Transfer of Property Act if the law mandates so - depending upon the property involved. If not properly stamped/registered, such transfer would be rendered as invalid. Stamp duty shall also be paid as per the value of the gift.
Legal Considerations
The gift of movable or immovable property must be in accordance with section 122 of the Transfer of Property Act, 1882. A gift deed for an immovable or movable property must be registered if required as per the rules and regulations and must also be properly stamped. The deed should also declare that the donor is not bankrupt (i.e. solvent), the gift is being made without any consideration in return and that the donor is giving the gift by his/her own choice without any force or coercion. A minor cannot enter into a valid contract in India and hence cannot make a valid gift deed., although, a guardian can accept the gift on behalf of a minor. A gift once made cannot be revoked. It is also important to know that gifts made to relatives defined under the Income Tax Act are exempt from tax in the hands of the donee.
