Possibility of exchange of land with structure in PARTITION DEED


21-Sep-2023 (In Property Law)
I am describing in a simplified way. There are 20 decimal land and 400 sq. Ft structure (room) in the name of "X" and X have a REGISTERED DEED IN HIS NAME. Now, X died leaving a son "Y" and daughter "Z". Each of Y & Z is recorded owner of 10 decimal land (as in govt record or ROR i.e. Record Of Right). Y and Z have no DEED in their name. As per mutual settlement between Y & Z , structure exists in Y's area. Y will give 1 decimal of land from his share to Z and so, Z will leave her claim of house (which falls in Y's area). MY QUESTION, DOES THIS EXCHANGE (of land with structure) POSSIBLE IN PARTITION DEED OR THEY SHOULD DO A GIFT/SALE DEED FOR THE 1 DECIMAL LAND SEPARATELY ???? Or, WHICH IS WILL BE THE BEST AS PER YOUR SUGGESTION?

it is very much legal to have division of property within family by a deed of partition and also by a deed of family settlement. moreover, you have to clarify if 1 decimal land is given extra, what would be the nature of ownership of the structure?.
