If the property is self acquired, then it is his will to give the property to any one. if it is ancestral then his share only be given.

Gift is complete when accepted by donee.

If gift deed is valid/registered then donor and donee could have cancelled with thier consent.

If gift deed was under coercion, force then court alone can revoke the gift.

The donor has to come forward.

Agreed with expert opinion.

The challenge can only be raised if at all some legality pertaining to the said gift arises. Otherwise merely because the donee was not related to the donor ,the transaction is not liable to be cancelled. Augustine Chatterjee 9999931153

If it is ancestral only his share he can gift away. If the property is self acquired he can gift the property to any one he wants. There is no bar as such.The girl enjoys absolute ownership rights with respect to the gifted property to the exclusion of every one else including his/children children.If you appreciate this answer plese click the thnak you button on my forum.
