I presume it is self acquired property of your father 

 

2) if so he could have executed gift deed in your favour 

 

3) even if sisters file suit to set aside gift deed they may  not suceed 

 

4) suit has to be filed within period of 3 years of execution of gift deed

If the property were to be your father's self acquired property, then the registered Gift Deed executed by him in your favour is legally valid and even if your three sisters challenge it in a court of law, they may not succeed.

It depends upon circumstances of the case. Your sisters have every right to challenge gift if they so wish.

If the property is not your great grandfather's (Mutthaatha) , then no issues. But if that's an ancestral property, your sisters will have stake. Your sisters will not cause you problem, be a good brother always ;)

If the property gifted by your father is his self-acquired one, there is no issue at all. No one else can claim it.

If it was your father's self acquired property, then he can take any decision about his property tor transfer the same in favor of anyone as per his choice, your sisters cannot challenge the same because this transfer was done by your father during his lifetime and when he was in a sound mental health

- Since, your father has registered the gifted deed in your favour , the by way of that deed you become the owner for the same, as once Gift deed executed , it cannot cancelled without Court Order. 

- It means that your father is only have right to cancel the gift deed after filing a suit before the court 

- Hence, after the demise of your father , none of other legal heirs having righto to challenge the said gift deed on any ground.

Dear Client,

As the property in question was self-acquired by your father, he possesses the absolute right to make decisions regarding its transfer to anyone of his choice. Since this transfer occurred during his lifetime and while he was of sound mental health, it is legally valid and cannot be challenged by your sisters.

Hello!

Your sisters may claim a share. It is upon mutual understanding whether you want to give them a share, but once a property received as gift you may not get a chance to transfer. The clauses of the Gift deed must be perused.
