A.Dear Sir,
You need not worry as it was self acquired property of donor (mother) as such she can gift it to anybody and if challenge has to be made on any other ground, it has to be made within 3 years of such registration. Copy of Gift Deed is accessible to all the public at large as it is a public document in Sub-Registrar office and nobody can ignore such knowledge also.

A.To give opinion, it is necessary to scrutinize that registered Gift Deed for its scope, meaning and effect. It is also necessary to know how the mother got that property. Without scrutinizing the concerned facts, proper legal opinion cannot be given.

A.Dear Client,
Any self-acquired property can be bequeathed or gifted to any person according to the wish of the testator or donor without taking consent from anyone. However, the mother and her sons being legal heirs and interested parties in the concerned property, can dispute the said transaction of gift.
