Recently, the Bombay High Court ruled that elderly parents can take back a share in their property given to a son as a gift if he fails to look after them or harasses them owing to the Maintenance and Welfare of Parents and Senior Citizens Act, 2007.
A division bench of Justices Ranjit More and Anuja Prabhudesai cited the special law for the maintenance of senior citizens, upholding the decision of a tribunal which ordered to withdraw an Andheri resident’s gift deed to his son with 50 per cent share in the flat.
