Adoption

IS Adoption deed enough for adopting a child from willing parents

Hi, I am a Divorced woman. I wanted to adopt my maid's 3 rd daughter as they were too poor to take care of her. They have consented for adoption. So will ot be enough if an advocate prepares an adoption deed and both me and the birth parents register it in the Sub-Registrar office? Are there any specific rules in Telangana related to this? Is court decree a mandate after registering the adoption deed?

( Hyderabad, Telangana )

Dear Client
Post 2017 the Government of India has made it mandatory to adopt all children through CARA and follow the rule and the formalities. When you adopt through CARA then you follow the rules as the Juvenile Justice Act.
Still adoption under Hindu Adoption and Maintenance Act has not been brought under the CARA's umbrella and one can adopt under HAMA through a registered deed

Dear Madam,

Dear Sir,

THE HINDU ADOPTIONS AND MAINTENANCE ACT, 1956. [Act No.78 of 1956][21st December, 1956].

Men who are unmarried can adopt as well as long as they are not a minor. However, if a man were to adopt a daughter, the man must be twenty one years of age or older. Only unmarried Hindu women can legally adopt a child. A married woman can only give her consent to adoption by her husband.

You may get register an Adoption Deed under the provisions of above Act and thus get instant adoption.
