A.Dear Client,
I can provide you with some general guidance on the process of making a gift deed for property sharing and the associated costs and timeframe. However, please note that the specific process, costs, and timeframe may vary depending on the jurisdiction and the specific circumstances of your case.

1. Consult with a Lawyer: Start by consulting with a lawyer who specializes in property and succession laws. They can guide you through the legal process and ensure compliance with the relevant laws and regulations. The lawyer will review the documents related to the property and understand the existing ownership and any applicable laws governing the partition or distribution of assets.

2. Drafting the Gift Deed: The lawyer will help in drafting the gift deed, which outlines the intent to transfer ownership of the property to you and your cousins on a share basis. The document will specify the details of the property, the names of the recipients, and the proportion of the shares allotted to each beneficiary. It is crucial to ensure that the gift deed is drafted accurately and complies with the legal requirements.

3. Stamp Duty and Registration: The gift deed needs to be executed on appropriate stamp paper, and stamp duty needs to be paid according to the applicable rates determined by the state government. Additionally, the gift deed must be registered with the Sub-Registrar of Assurance within the prescribed timeframe. The registration fees will also vary depending on the state and the value of the property being transferred.

4. Document Execution: Once the gift deed is prepared, all parties involved (including your grandfather's brother's son and any other necessary parties) will need to sign the deed in the presence of witnesses. It is advisable to have the signing process executed in front of an authorized person, such as a Notary Public or a Sub-Registrar, to ensure its validity.

5. Timeframe and Costs: The timeframe and costs involved in the process can vary depending on multiple factors, including the complexity of the case, the specific requirements of the jurisdiction, and the availability of necessary documents and information. The costs involved may include legal fees, stamp duty, registration fees, and any other incidental expenses. It is advisable to consult with a lawyer to get an estimate of the overall costs and expected timeframe based on your specific circumstances.
Thank you.
