Solution

The correct option is C R can refuse as he has become full owner of the house
  • "Gift" is the transfer of certain existing moveable or immoveable property made voluntarily and without consideration, by one person, called the donor, to another, called the donee, and accepted by or on behalf of the donee. Such acceptance must be made during the lifetime of the donor and while he is still capable of giving. If the donee dies before acceptance, the gift is void.
  • According to the principle given, when a person transfers property with its full ownership and without any consideration to some other person, then it is called a gift In this case R can refuse, because he is the full owner of the house which he received as a gift from S after completing all the legal formalities.
