How can I transfer property in my daughters name


15-Jul-2023 (In Property Law)
I am a Hindu.I have a flat in my name and I am a widow. I have only one daughter who is unmarried.I want the flat to go to her after my death; without any kind of legal hassles. I understand that even if I make a will, she will have to produce "No Objection" from many of my relatives like my brother, sister etc. So, can I make a gift deed now; and after my death, can she convert that to her name-- without anyone else being involved.

HI, you can gift that flat to your daughter. section 14(1) of Hindu succession act will protect your interest in the property. according to that the property which you hold is your absolute property. you can gift , transfer the property as per your wish and will. if your property is self acquired then your relatives need not to give any NO OBJECTION. your daughter is class -1 heir and she will automatically get the property in case of intestate. better you gift the property to your daughter and register the gift.

Hi 1) In accordance to sec 14 of hindu succession act:- Any property possessed by a female Hindu, whether acquired before or after the commencement of this Act, shall be held by her as full owner thereof and not as a limited owner. 2) So you are the absolute owner of the flat and your brother, sister do not have any rights whatsoever on the said flat. 3) However you can choose to execute a Registered Will or Gift deed in her name now so that any future problems can be avoided. 4) A registered Will shall be effective after your time 5) A registered gift deed if executed will result in the property ownership transferred immediately upon execution of gift deed. hope this helps
