Gift Deed (for Money)
This is regarding gift deed. I put up in Gurgaon. My father gifted me INR 5,00,000 through RTGS bank transfer from his account to mine. I need this money to show as proof of funds for canadian immigration. we got one affidavit (INR 10 stamp paper) signed by my father and notarized. also, we got one gift deed (INR 100 stamp paper) signed by me (donee), my father(donor), my mother (one witness) and it is also notarized. will these two documents work? 1) can such a gift deed (of money as gift) work without a witness? 2) can such a gift deed (of money as gift) work with just one witness? 3) or is it mandatory to have two witnesses sign it? 4) who can be the witnesses in this case? can my mother be?

With respect to your query, the legal opinion is as under:- (1) There is no necessity of any documentation if movable property is gifted. (2) Money can be gifted just by handing over the money by the donor to the donee or by transferring from account to account by the donor to the account of donee (3) However the factum of gift is necessary to be mentioned in income tax returns. (4) However, precautionary if you have obtained a memorandum endorsing the factum of gift of Rs. 5,00,000/- in your favor by your father, it is a good gesture. (5) The memorandum of gift of money should be signed by the donor and donee i.e. by your father and you. The document can be witnessed by any person. Your mother is well qualified to sign the document as witness . If you want, you can get the document witnessed by any other person also. (6) Memorandum of gift deed reduced into writing required two witnesses at least.

Hi I have a daughter aged 7 years and I reside in Delhi. I got married in 2010. But I did not change my surname in records till 2018 when I renewed my passport. In my daughter's Birth certificate issued by MCD my name is mentioned as "Sonia Kapoor" (Name before marriage) however as mentioned I had changed my surname in all my documents like Aadhar ,PAN card and Passport to "Sonia Sahni". My query is that when my daughter needs to use her Birth certificate my name will appear as "Sonia Kapoor" but all other documents will be "Sonia Sahni". How do I change this name as the MCD officials are saying that the name of the mother cannot be changed in Birth certificate in Delhi. Also will my daughter have any problems if my surname mentioned in her birth certificate is different from the name I have in current documents Please help. Regards Sonia Delhi
