Execute a gift deed in favour of your daughter in law and if you want the property to be transferred after your death then execute a will in favour of your daughter in law.

If the property in question is your Mother In Law ( MIL) self acquired property then she can transfer it by way of gift or sale deed in your favour. But in a case your MIL had inherited it then she can only transfer her respective share in property, pls clarify it

It would be advisable for your wife to make a Will in favour of her daughter-in-law in respect of her share in the property. The gift would involve payment of stamp duty on the market value of the property. As against this stamp duty is not leviable for inheritance through Will. In the circumstance, the making of the Will in favour of daughter-in-law will be a better option.

A gift is only valid if the donor has exclusive rights over the property. The gift is invalid because your father does not have exclusive rights over the entire property gifted. Your father could have given the whole ancestral property to your daughter-in law with your consent if he wanted to.
