Legal Question in Family Law in India
Gift Deed - Name of Property
In a mutual consent divorce, my spouse gifted a property to my minor child with me (the mother) as a guardian. Am I eligible to pay any tax for the same? Whose name do I register the house in for purpose of electricity and telephone bills - the minor child or the guardian? Whose name would the actual house be in for paying the house tax, etc

The Property is in your child name.
You have to maintain the property on behalf of your child.

YOu have to pay the property tax in the name of Minor, and get the name changed in Electricity department, as for as the Phone bill if the child uses this then the phone bill could be paid in the name of the child otherwise get your name registered in the telephone department.
