Property transfers from parents to children often create confusion around ownership. While mutation entries update revenue records, they do not confer legal title. Without proper documentation, families risk disputes and title failures during transactions.

In an article published by Moneycontrol, our Partner Abhilash Pillai highlighted that only registered instruments such as a gift deed, sale deed, partition/release deed, or a valid will-backed succession truly secure property transfers from parents to children.
