Onerous Gifts - Transfer of Property Act 1882

Onerous Gift

Section 127 of the Transfer of Property Act defines Onerous Gift as follows:
Where a gift is in the form of a single transfer to the same person of several things of which one is, and the others are not, burdened by an obligation, the donee can take nothing by the gift unless he accepts it fully.
 
So, though there would be no consideration for the gift, but there may be considerations for the other things bundled with it, and the Donee has to accept it in total. The gift can not be received partially
