This query is : Resolved
I bought a home in Kolkatta (in a NBCC project) on my sister-in-laws name since I was based out of India that time.
Now i am in India and i want to get the ownership transferred.
What will be the legal procedure for this since its within family? Can this transfer be done like a gift or something I read somewhere so that i do not have to incur extra charges.
Does it have to be freehold or leasehold? Since its NBCC, would it come under Kolkatta laws or Delhi law(where freehold is compulsory now)?

You shall have to engage a lawyer of Kolkatta and if you require, his credentials can also be provided to you. You need to incur the stamp duty of gift deed.
