The gift deed can be revoked at any time in the life time of the donor.
If the gift deed registered and stamp duty is paid then the gift deed can be set aside only with the consent of the court.

Hello,
Gift once given cannot be revoked. Gift deed s irrevocable. So once the gift deed s registered it becomes the sole property of the donee I.e., person who received the gift.
But in case if the said deed was registered due to threat fraud or by force then it can be revoked and the same has to be proved before the court.
You will have to file a declaration suit saying the said gift deed s null and void and not binding on me.
