As per your query,

If your father gifts you 50% of his share in his property, you become the sole owner of the same. When a gift deed is executed it take effect immediately upon acceptance of the gift. There is no provision for appointing a nominee in the Gift Deed. In case your father has appointed her nominee for rest of the 50% of his property she can definitely claim her right on that 50% other than gifted to you.

Dear Querist, Yes, if you become the owner, she would definitely ask for share in the property. instead make a will of father so that it becomes a future event and your wife may not able to claim it.
