My Father wants to transfer immovable property in name of my HUF. This Huf consist of me my wife and my son.
How can he transfer this income earning property. Please advice. How best can we do through Will or gift.?
I have read these articles https://www.caclubindia.com/articles/gifts-to-and-from-huf-20454.asp https://www.caclubindia.com/experts/gift-received-by-huf-771110.asp
But it has created more confusion, then giving clarity.

The Best way to do it is let your father gift you which will be considered exempted as gift from relative and then you can transfer that property to your HUF.

Dear Rahul Gupta,
Either ways are good.
Registered gift deed will transfer the property in your name as soon as it is registered.
in case of will, property will pass on after the death of the will holder. if you feel will is preferable, he can transfer it directly to your huf also in case of the will.

First of all transfer by HUF member to HUF is not considered transfer and once the property comes under HUF name, income will be considered under HUF only. But remember the property you transfer in name of HUF, can only be released during dissolution of HUF and will be divided in the share proportion of members.
