HUF comes into existence as soon as one is married and a child is conceived. There has to be a family. There may and may not be a corpus or fund. When a property or asset is inherited by a person which was earlier owned by his ancestors or bigger huf i.e. HUF of his father a corpus fund is created. This corpus can be created by a gift also in favour of the family. Gift deed should specifically state that it is being given for the benefit of the family of Mr X. There cant be any deed because interest of the beneficiary increases or decreases with every birth and death in the family. Now to open a bank account, address and identity proof of the individual who is karta is required to be given.Just make a rubber stamp where signatory will be Karta of the HuF.
