1. Mother can execute a Stamp Duty paid Registered Gift Deed in your favor, thus affecting 100% Transfer of Property, in your favor. It is very simple.

a) Stamp Duty: 200/-

b) Registration Fee: 200/-

c) No other Govt. charges

2. AFTER above duly submit notarized copy of Gift Deed with proper application to Society. No Transfer forms or transfer fees are payable, since you are already Flat-Owner and Member of Society.

Your mother in law can execute a relinquishment deed in your favour of her share of 50% in your name or can make a gift deed in your favour but you need to pay necessary stamp duty applicable in your state if it is gift deed in your favour.

There is two ways of doing the same:-

Firslty, she can gift you the same then

you can get it registered own your name.

Secondly, she may relinquish also her share on to you.

But, in both the options, if any consideration has been paid then you may have to pay the stamp duty twice, one on the gift or relinquishment, and second at the time of getting it registered in on your name.

This is my response to you:

1. Your mother can execute a Deed of Relinquishment and get the transferred all in your name;

2. In the alternative your mother can also execute a Gift Deed in your favour;

3. Consult a local lawyer and go ahead with the same;

4. It is a very basic process with minimum stamp duty (since its family) and nominal registration fees.

mother in law can gift her share to his son - stamp duty is 500

then son can gift his share to you (wife) - stamp duty is 500

if gift from mother in law to daughter in law is made then stamp duty will be 2% of market value of flat

so execute two separate gift deeds well spaced in time and save stamp duty
