well its the mother
Re: Legal Guardian
the court is empowered to deal with property of the child; any of the parties will need court's permission for dealing with child's property.

When the cusdoty of the child was given by the court than mother has the right to transact the property of minor but with permission of the court
Re: Legal Guardian
whether mother is also appointed as the gaurdian of teh child if so then she can deal with teh property in teh interest of teh child
Re: Legal Guardian
If the child is below the age of 5 years then mother is the natural guardian and if the child is above 5years then father is natural guardian.In instant case since the custody is with mother then mother can do the transaction by the prior permission of court and that too in the interest and welfare of child.
