Behaviour of my wife is not good for my parents as well as for me also. So, I want to take divorse from my wife but she doesn't want to give. It become very dificult to take divorse for me because of my financial condition. We have a house in the name of my mother. And my wife is greedy for our house.
I have two younger sisters, out of them one sister is married. So, my mother want to transfer or sell our house to my one married sister so that my wife have no any option to deny from divorse.

So, I want to know that can my mother sell our house to my married sister? (With or without consideration)

A.Dear client,

The property in the current matter would qualify as a self acquired property. A property that an individual buys through his or her own money will be known as a self-acquired property. The property can be gifted by someone else or transferred to one person from another.
All rights and advantages of self-acquired property belong exclusively to the owner. These rights include the ability to transfer and sell the property anyway they see fit. The owner might even give the property as a gift to a non-family member. No additional family member's permission is necessary. In addition, the owner is free to use the land anyway she sees fit.
In the current matter, the owner of the property is your mother, she can transfer the rights of the property on whoever she wants to.

Thank you

A.Dear Client,
If the property (house) is transferred in the mother's name after the death of your father, then she is the rightful owner of that property. She in her lifetime can transfer that property to her daughters by way of a registered gift deed that requires no consideration and the best way to transfer the property. The Act makes no distinction between married or unmarried daughters. In the given situation, it is advisable to execute a gift deed by your mother in favour of her married daughter adding a terminating clause in the Gift Deed for future occurrences. This legal document establishes the transfer of property from the mother(donor) to the daughter (donee). It should be registered to make the gift valid, and stamp duty may be applicable based on state-specific laws. It is, therefore, suggested to take legal consultation to solve the matter with the help of a property expert lawyer in the right way.
