No matter what the relation is, wife and husband are two seprate persons in the eye of law. So the answer is No unless you have given the power /authority to do so.

I'm not sure about Bangalore, but in California you cannot help yourself to your husband's separate property and attempt to turn it into your separate property. The same is true of community property. One spouse cannot make a gift of community property to his or her own separate property.
