The (HUF)property was partitioned before the enactment of Hindu Succession Act of 1956 by the HUF by Three sons(Coparceners) and Father(Karta) in 1952. The possession and the titles transferred immediately thereafter. One of the Coparcners has executed a will of his share of property in favour of his wife in 2001.
Query:1). Does the property becomes self acquired and loses its ancestral nature, had it been partitioned as per the provisions of the Indian Succession Act of 1925?
2). is the coparcener`s will legitimate/valid/enforceable?
