as per sec. 56(2)(vii) gift received by an individual is exempt if received from his relative and father is a relative as per that sec. therefore you can take gift without any tax liablity.
stamp duty will be payable as per the applicable rates of registrar office.
as per sec. 47 gift is exempt from capital gain tax.
as per sec. 49(1)cost of acquisition, of a capital asset being received by above mentioned mode,shall be the cost at which previous owner purchased it.
