Dear sir
Transferring property by way of a gift deed to a person who isnt a relative shall attract a significant amount of stamp duty much more than what a sale deed would attract.
Before you can enter into a sale deed you must determine the ownership of the property. If the property is not ancestral property and is in your name then a sale deed to a person who is not a relative would be possible.
