JUDGMENT :
T.V.THAMILSELVI, J.
The appellant has filed this Second Appeal against the judgment and decree dated 11.03.2024, passed in A.S.No.221 of 2023 by the learned III Ad
A valid gift under Mohammedan Law requires declaration, acceptance, and delivery of possession; failure to meet these criteria results in the transaction being invalid.
The validity of a registered gift deed does not require consideration, as long as possession is delivered, confirming property rights to the donee.
A gift under Mohammedan law requires explicit acceptance and possession; failure to prove these elements results in denial of ownership claims.
The main legal point established in the judgment is the validity and proof of oral Hiba under Mohammedan Law, and the requirement to establish possession and acceptance of a gift in property disputes....
A registered gift deed cannot be revoked or cancelled unilaterally without the consent of the donee. Such unilateral cancellation deed does not bind the donee.
