I live in New Zealand and I own a property in Mira Road, India. I had bought that flat 13 years back and now I want to transfer the rights of that flat to my sister as a gift. However, I will be unable to visit India in near future so I want your advise on what paperwork do I need to do in order to transfer the property in my sister's name?

You can execute a power of attorney in favour of any of your family member to execute and register such gift deed. The power of attorney can be executed by you before the Indian Embassy in New Zeland and thereafter forwarded to India to pay stamp duty thereon post adjudication.
