gift donor affidavit

When you need it

A sworn donor declaration — voluntariness, title, relationship, encumbrances — supporting a gift file; evidence only, doesn't transfer property, which still needs the registered, two-witness deed (ss.122-123). State only facts within the donor's knowledge; no sweeping guarantee, don't waive a required permission.

Strengthens the file but can't cure missing registration or acceptance.

What follows is written for Punjab and Chandigarh. It states the position there rather than describing how it varies, so the amounts below are the ones that apply — worth confirming at the sub-registrar’s office, because rates change. If the property is anywhere else in India, none of this is yours.

Stamp duty

Fixed Article 4 duty (not a %); authorities print Rs 25 on own forms, but no PB/CH table lists an affidavit rate — confirm at counter. E-stamp in deponent's own name, one sheet each. Chandigarh Estate Office accepts a notarised affidavit over an Executive Magistrate's.

Registration

Not the gift conveyance, and not compulsorily registrable for supporting one; the gift deed itself is, under s.123.

Notarisation

Sworn or affirmed before the oath or notarial authority used for the filing.

Witnesses

Not required for the affidavit itself; the gift deed needs two attesting witnesses under s.123.

SUPPORTING ROLE

This affidavit sits behind the gift deed. It cannot replace donor execution, donee acceptance, two-witness attestation, compulsory registration or an allotting-authority permission that the property requires.

LEGAL BASIS

Punjab: This affidavit supports, but does not replace, a gift governed by sections 122 and 123 of the Transfer of Property Act, 1882. Article 4 of Schedule I-A applies to the affidavit; the exact Punjab denomination was not confirmed. The underlying gift deed goes to the jurisdictional Sub-Registrar. No independent appeal route attaches to this supporting affidavit.

Chandigarh: The same distinction applies. Article 4 of Schedule I-A applies; the exact Chandigarh denomination was not confirmed. For sector property, the Estate Office transfer file follows the registered gift deed rather than this affidavit alone.
