By the process of gift deed it will cost you the entire registration and stamp duty costs, its better your mother gives you a registered will in your name of her share be it moveable or immoveable in nature which will cost you lesser.

Yes. It is valid. Anybody can make gift in favour of anybody. Your mother also make a gift deed in favour of your name. But as there is no blood relation between you and your step mother so you have to charge 8% (stamp duty 6% + registration fee 1.1% and other expenses) of the government market value of your property. But if there is blood (full) relation , the registration cost become 3%.
So you can make a gift deed . For more details you can consult a civil lawyer .
Thank you.

yes, there's no problem in it. If she
want she can transfers her share to any one. Only st the time of registration of deed it has to be mentioned that how she acquired the property.your lawyer will do that keep faith on him.

Sir, that since your father died without making a will, you and your stepmother hold 50% undivided share each in the property. She can gift her undivided 50% share which is valid. However, since there is no specific demarcation, you can raise objection. Please contact for more details.
