If the property came to you from your father you can do whatever you want. Gift it to anyone. Your wish. If you made the property with your money then can you prove that your wife did not contribute even one rupee towards its acquisition? If yes do whatever you want with it. If your wife put even 1 rupee either cheque or cash with receipt or paid property tax from her account, then you have to share it with her. In all cases you have to register the will. It has zero value without registration. My experience - even if it's the first two cases, give some one or two lakhs to wife. You may hate her. That's okay. Give the money to buy peace. She can go to court in all 3 cases. Though 1 and 2 will be in your favor you will spend 4-5 years in court. Best is buy some peace. Give small share.
