Dhana settlement called as GIFT. gift having some essential elements. Gift mean its must be without CONDITION AND CONSIDERATION. But your father put some one condition. So at first look i self its not a valid gift. Another thing is a valid gift, once gifted mean we can't revoke it in life time.

you can challenge the gift deed and in this regard you can prove that was with some conditions as you told and it will be declared improper by the court.

gift means handover the property immediately with out condition, so you cannot claim

You father can revoke it but after the life time of your aunty. It is gift settlement Deed hence you have to go through the clauses and from that if there is a clause of revocation power seen then we have some good things to be done.
