Under the Transfer of Property Act, 1882, can a Hindu person gift his immovable property orally?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer B
An ordinary gift of immovable property by a Hindu must comply with section 123: a registered instrument signed by or for the donor and attested by at least two witnesses. Delivery of possession alone does not dispense with these requirements. The saving for Muhammadan law in section 129 does not make an ordinary Hindu gift orally effective.
