Receive the property under a Will and once owner expires , you transfer in your name as under a will. I am not sure of this answer. Please wait for other members to reply
Dear Doshi ji, Thanks for the reply. But, even if the WILL is registered, the WILL maker can change it any time during his life time which would always be a risk. so we need to find out another solution. it is not that we do not to pay any taxes, but would like to pay minimal.
