Daughter's right to late father's property

Dear sirs,

My father did not leave any will. Can i claim a portion in the property (land and building) left by him which is now being used by my brother? I am a married Hindu woman.

 

Thanks a lot for your suggestions.

Dear Ritu,

In case your father had not left any WILL, then the property left behind by him will to in equal share to his Class-I Legal heirs i.e. his wife (your mother), son(s) and daughter(s).

You can therefore ask your brother for the share in the property.  In case he refuses to give your share, you have to approach the Court.

Dear Querist,

 

As per Hindu Succession Act -Section 6-Post Amendment Act 2005, whenever they may have born- They can claim for partition of the property which has not been partitioned earlier.


It may be noted that the aim of the Amendment is to end gender discrimination in Mitakshara coparcenary by including daughters in the system. Mitakshara is one of the two schools of Hindu Law but it prevails in a large part of the country. After this amendment, daughter now has coparcenary rights father's property in equal as the sons have.

 

Trust this would suffice.

Dear Mr. Amit,

It is not correct on your part to deviate from the original thread.  We have to answer the question posed in the original thread.  One is not supposed to unnecessarily interject and pose completely a different question.

If you have any query to ask, please come in a different thread.

Since the property was transferred by your grand mother to your father, your aunt's son cannot stake any claim in it.

YES U CAN HAVE A EQUAL SHARE IN THE PROPERTY LEFT BY UR FATHER AS WELL AS UR BROTHER .

R.Ramachandran (Advocate)     09 December 2010

Dear Mr. Amit,

Now see the utter confusion.  No one really knows whether the answers of Mr. Sachin Agarwal and Mr. Raj Kumar Ji relate to the question posed by Ritu Sharma or Mr. Amit Bose.

The confusion is mainly because you have unnecessarily introduced your query in somebody else's (Ritu Sharma's) query thread.  Further, Mr. Sachin and Mr. Raj do not clearly address the querist but are generally answering.

This is called confusion worst confounded!
