Yash signed a deed of gift in favour of Raja. If Yash does not agree to its registration, will the gift deed be registered? Explain, whether delay in registration of a gift deed will postpone its operation ?

Answer & Explanation:

Section 123 of the Transfer of Property Act, 1882 merely requires that donor should have signed the deed of gift. Hence a gift deed can be registered even if the donor does not agree to its registration ( Kalyan Sundaram Pillai v. Karuppa Mopanar, AIR 1927 PC 42 ). Delay in registration of a gift does not postpone its operation. The gift deed will be registered even if Yash (donor) does not agree to its registration.
