10 November 2008 If the ultimate idea is to buy a property in your mother's name, it is better it is transferred back to your mother via your account, the same route through which it came to your father's account.As for source proof it is enough if you have a letter from your brother about remittance.

At present the interest earned is to be assessed as your father's.
