Official index description

Source: Supreme Court official index.

The consistent view of apex courts of this sub-continent is that not only a gift under Muhammadan Law but also under Transfer of property Act, a gift must be coupled with acceptance and delivery of possession. Where a donee of property is in bona fide possession of it, though the gift had not been perfected by a registered instrument in accordance with law, the donor or its representative cannot oust the donee who had been in undisturbed possession of the property for a long period though such period falls short of 12 years.
