× I gifted him an iPad which is really benefit.
✓ I gifted him an iPad which is really beneficial.
The word 'benefit' is a noun, but here an adjective is needed to describe the iPad. The correct adjective form is 'beneficial'. Using 'beneficial' properly modifies the noun 'iPad' to express that it provides benefit.
× Yes, I can remember an occasion where I gifted A handmade gift that was painting, which was given to my mother on her birthday.
✓ Yes, I can remember an occasion where I gifted a handmade gift that was a painting, which was given to my mother on her birthday.
The article 'A' should be lowercase 'a' and the phrase 'that was painting' is incomplete. It should be 'that was a painting' to correctly identify the gift as a painting. Articles must be used properly before singular countable nouns.
× After receiving that present, she was really ecstatic and Apprecia appreciated my efforts.
✓ After receiving that present, she was really ecstatic and appreciated my efforts.
The word 'Apprecia' is incorrect and seems to be a typo. The correct verb is 'appreciated'. Also, 'appreciated' is the past tense verb that fits the sentence context.
