The stamp duty on gift deed in Maharashtra is 3% of the property’s value, as per Article 34 of the Maharashtra Stamp Act. However, if the property is gifted within the family (to husband, wife, son, daughter, grandson, grand-daughter, or wife of a deceased son), the stamp duty is Rs 200 for residential or agricultural properties. This amendment was introduced in 2017.

My simple answer is no problems both can claim . Please ensure the proceeds of the sale was credited in both your and your spouse account or a joint account ( to avoid any kind of presumed gift that will complicate ) and cheque/ bank transfers were made from the bank while reinvesting within the stipulated time . There are many case laws support this kind of transactions.
