Property Gift Deed Requirements

Summary

In Mumbai, if a property is inherited, a No Objection Certificate (NOC) from all legal heirs, including siblings, is generally required for gifting. This is because the property is considered ancestral. Consulting a local property lawyer is advisable for detailed guidance on the matter.

My Father had purchased an apartment in a society, after some years he made a Gift Deed in my Mother's name. When my Mother decided to make Gift Deed of the house in my name (her younger son), the society told us that she had inherited the house, not purchased it, and she had to take a NOC from my elder brother before gifting it to me. My question: Is a NOC really required from my elder brother?
Hi ****! To provide accurate information, could you please let me know your location? Laws can vary by region.
I am from Mumbai, India

- Property inherited by your mother is seen as ancestral property.
- NOC from all legal heirs (including your elder brother) is generally necessary.
- Consulting a local property lawyer is advisable for detailed guidance.
