If she transferred the title to her husband absolutely then he is free to sell the property. During his lifetime his children have no share in the property.

1. Upon registering the property on her husband's name, the husband becomes the owner of the Self acquired property.

2. Being the owner of the Self acquired property, the husband is free to do anything with the property during his lifetime.

3. Son/Daughter are not entitled to any right in their father's Self acquired property during father's lifetime.

1. Direct registration in the form of Sale Deed is possible, but you have to show consideration in the Sale Deed, which attracts huge stamp duty and therefore better option shall be Gift Deed.

2. When once the transfer of property takes place in terms of either Sale Deed/Gift Deed, the possession rests with the beneficiary.

1. Wife has registered a deed of conveyance in favour of her husband in connection with her property which she has inherited from parents.

2. After the said registration of dee, husband becomes the sole title holder of the said property on which the wife will no longer have any claim during the life time of the husband.

1. Property is not registered. The deed of conveyance (like gift deed, sale deed, settlement deed etc) in connection with the property is registered.

2. All the above deeds of conveyance are directly registered with the registrar.

3. The wife can execute any such deed of conveyance and register the same in favour of her husband.

yes, the wife can sell the property to her husband and nobody can restrain her and after execution of sale deed with consideration, the husband shall be the absolute owner of that property and sale or gift the property as per his wish.

The modes of transfer are sale and gift deed. For sale there has to be consideration, so the feasible mode is gift deed.

If the wife had marketable title over the property now transferred to her husband by a registered deed, then such transfer is legally valid and indisputable.

The transferee, i.e. the husband then becomes absolute owner of the property, he can very well sell the property to any person and he need not take the consent of anyone including his children or anyone nor a NOC for this purpose.

The wife can transfer the property through a gift deed or settlement deed but it should be a registered document.

The husband can transfer all the records including mutation and revenue records on his once the registered document is executed in his favor.
