1. The adoption requires due registration through process of court. Oral adoption has no legal significance.

2. U/s 12 (10(c) of the Hindu Adoption & Maintenance Act, 1956, the adoptive child will have legal right in her original parents property that which stood before adoption and can have such right in her adoptive parent's property also.
