Yes, you can add your mother's name as joint owner of your property as below are two options :

Adding another owner (as co-owner) to your property can be done through.

Sale Deed : You can include your Spouse’s name in the new sale deed mentioning the ratio or portion of the ownership and get it registered. The stamp duty is typically in the range of 5-12.5% of the market value of the property (varies in different states), while the registration charge is about 1%.

Gift Deed : You can also share the ownership by gifting it to someone. In this case, you will need to get a gift deed executed on a stamp paper and register it at the registrar’s office. A gift to a relative is not taxable. However, if you gift the property to a non-relative, the value of the house is treated as income and taxed according to the income tax rules for the relevant year. The stamp duty is generally 2% of the value of the property, along with 1% registration charge.

you can enter your mother's name as a joint property holder on a stamp paper by going to a registrar's office in your city. joint ownership can be effectuated via:-

Sale deed: You can sell a portion of the property to your mother and she can use this sale deed to get herself registered as the co-owner of the property by paying the necessary charges. The stamp duty is typically in the range of 5-12.5% of the market value of the property (varies in different states), while the registration charge is about 1%.

Gift deed: You can also share the ownership by gifting it to her. In this case, you will need to get a gift deed executed on a stamp paper and register it at the registrar’s office.

For that, you'll have a execute a gift deed executed and registered in favour of your mother gifting her a share in the property owned by you.

Then only, her name can mutated as co-owner.

Affidavit on stamp paper cannot be valid mode for transfer of property rights.

YES- As per law , you can joint your real mothers name in your own property. But the municipal council will not accept your mother as joint holder just on basis of an affidavit on stamp paper of Rs.100.

- Hence, you will have to prepare some transfer documents in her favour.

- By way of GIFT DEED, you can share the ownership with your mother.

- Firstly , execute a gift deed in favour of your mother along with you and get it registered from the Registrar office from your area concern and submit it to the Municipal council for the record purposes. Then Municipal council will add your mothers name as joint owner along with you.

Until she is not a joint owner of the property along with you, her name cannot be included in the Municipal records in respect of this proeprty.

You first of all make her a joint owner by executing a registered gift deed to some portion of the property that you own and then apply for joint names in the property card.
