Dear Client
If you want to adopt a stepchild, you must have the consent (or agreement) of both your spouse and the child's other parent (the noncustodial parent) unless that parent has abandoned the child. By giving his or her consent, the non-custodial parent gives up all rights and responsibilities, including child support.
Thanks

1. By adopting the child with having an agreement between the Giving Parent and adopting parent and getting the deed authenticated by the Magistrate.

Until sometime back there was no law or rules to regulate the single male surrogacy to become father and hence few like Tushar Kapoor and Karan Johar have become fathers without breaking any law. But a new law is being formulated and bill has been tabled in the Parliament prohibiting this. Until the bill becomes the law you can take advantage of the same and be a father this way. For more details you can reach out to a lawyer and get proper guidance.
What will be the name of the mother on birth certificate and aadhar card of the child if single father is adopting a child.
Hi,
The local registrar notified under the Registration of Births and Deaths Act, 1969 (18 of 1969) shall issue the birth certificate in favor of an adopted child on an application filed by the Specialised Adoption Agency or adoptive parents, incorporating the names of the adoptive parents as parents. Please contact a lawyer for further advice.

Hello
As per the law the child must be adopted in front of some witness for a valid adoption. if there are witnesses who says you guys adopted the child then it would be considered as a valid adoption and it doesn't matter if he was adopted without proper legal procedure. Therefore the adopted child could claim property of his adoptive parents.
Thanks.

Can adoption be cancelled? If so, who can cancel it?
Dear Sir,
Once made, an adoption order cannot be undone except in an extremely limited set of circumstances. It is possible to appeal an order before it is put into practice, but that is different to revoking an order that has been implemented.

No, the adoptive son does not have any rights left in the property of the natural/biological parents once the adoption is affected. He will have only those rights which were vested onto him before he was adopted at the age of 5 years as per the Section 12 of Hindu Adoption and Maintenance Act, 1956.
