In terms of the gift deed you are the sole owner of this flat. Your son has no rights in this flat during your life time. You can sell or gift this property to anyone you desire, and the same cannot be called into question in a court of law by your son. Only in the event of you dying without a will your son along with other surviving heirs will succeed to this property.
since your father has gifted the property to you, you are the absolute owner of the property that was gifted to you. till you are alive, your son is not entitled for any share. upon your demise your son become a lawful heir to your property.
Already sufficient advise above is there.
