Judgment The first defendant is the appellant and the short point for determination in this appeal is whether the interest acquired under two documents Exhibit B-11 which is a registration copy of the original of a gift deed, dated 18th December, 1914, and another gift deed of 1919 dealing with items 1 and 2 of plaint A Schedule is for the tavazhi or for the individual donees specified in the two documents. The trial Court took the view that it was not for the tavazhi but in appeal the learned Subordinate Judge took the contrary view. Under Exhibit B-11 the father of the first plaintiff, one Gopala Menon and his sister, Kunhikutti Amma, who had no issue made a gift of item 1 to Lakshmi Amma, the wife of Gopala Menon and her four children, the second defendant, the first plaintiff, and defendants 1 and 10, who alone were born then. Under the second document, the gift was by Kunhikutti Amma alone of item 2 and some other items to the same Lakshmi Amma and her children then living, the first plaintiff, defendants 1, 2, 10 and 11 and Lakshmi alias Ammukutti Amma. In the suit for partition the question arose as to what shares each of the members of the family would be entitled to. If the properties were tavazhi properties then they would be entitled to shares on the per capita, basis; but if the gifts were to individuals and not to the branch constituting the individuals, then the division must be on a per stirpes basis. The question is whether the presumption laid down in Chakkara Kannan v. Kunhi Pokker1 , has to be applied to the first document, since it is a gift by Gopala Menon, though the sister joined, to his wife and children. Since all the members of the family then existing were included, there is mo reason why the presumption laid down in Chakkara Kannan v. Kunhi Pokker1 , should not be applied. There is nothing in the language of Exhibit B-11 to indicate any particular intention that the persons mentioned alone shall enjoy, nor that that their heirs or that the children that may be born to them would not be entitled. There is nothing in the language of Exhibit B-11 to indicate any particular intention that the persons mentioned alone shall enjoy, nor that that their heirs or that the children that may be born to them would not be entitled. As regards the second document, it is sufficient to point out that the gift was made to Lakshmi Amma and her children then existing, which indicates, especially when read along with the earlier document to which Kunhikutti Amma was a party as a donor, that the intention was to confer a benefit on the entire family and not on the individuals. Though there is no need to rely on the presumption in the case of the second document, the fact remains that the donees constituted a natural group and a gift to such a group constituting an entity must be construed to be gift to the entity as such and not to the individual members thereof. The view taken by the lower appellate Court is therefore, correct. The second appeal fails and is dismissed with costs. No leave. P.R.N. ... Appeal dismissed.
