Legal Question in Civil Rights Law in India

My father and his four brothers divided the ancestral properties among themselves in 1980 and wrote a document which is signed by all the brothers. This document is not registered. Now my father wants to execute a gift deed so that there will be a registered document. Can ancestral property be given by gift deed to the son by father. I am the only son to my father. I have an elder sister and she is married.

your elder sister also has a share in the property as the same is ancestral and not self acquired by your father. your father can only gift his share of the property.
