2. Yes. It does transfer right, title and interest.
3. It is legally not in any way less binding than a sale or a gift deed.
4. The law is same throughout the country in this particular matter. But the amount of stamp duty chargeable to such instrument is different in different states as the states have substituted their own schedules. (Article 55 of the Schedule appended to the Indian Stamp Act, 1899-Central Act)
