A gift deed is not necessary for movable properties. If you wish to give it on paper, then you and your brother as the donor and donee shall execute on a stamp worth Rs.100/-.

It would be appropriate to consult a local prudent lawyer as stamp duty is a State subject.
However, is it necessary or required to donate movable property through a Gift Deed ?

Hello,
You need to register the gift deed for gifting equity shares and stamp duty maybe 4-5% of the market value.
