you have not mentioned which year gift deed was executed in favour of C and D .


a was absolute owner of property gifted . if A had executed gift deed and was du;ty stamped and regd it would be valif gift . title has passed on to the donee .

if A was in sound mental condition to execute gft deed it would be diffcult to challnege the deed ./

you will have to show gft deed was vitiated by undue influence . contact a local lawyer

@ajay sethi 2012 jan the gift deed was done sir,,,

As the donor was not having good health and was of unsound mind and even he state illegal facts in the deed hence the gift should be got challenged by all legal heirs of deceased born out of his first marriage and there are bright chances to set aside such gift deed may it be got registered.

On facts you have a very good case.
1.apply for a copy of the gift deed from sub registrar's office.
2.collect all his hospitalization evidence together with diagnosis and treatment given as soon and as much of the same you find.
3.Consult a civil law lawyer,brief him facts with photo copies of documents get a plaint prepared for cancellation and let the same be filed in the court as suit.

As it was created in Jan 12,time is there but sooner the better.
