Ancestral property was partitioned between your Father in Law and his brother.

After such a partition, your father in law became owner of the property which would be treated as his self-acquired property.

Whether the term of selling to relatives was agreed at this stage?

If so, full language of the partitioned deed need to be referred.

After father in law property is inherited by his legal heirs.

Broadly they have right to sell the property. Not bound by such terms. No NOC from brother of FIL required.

well explained by Expert Rajendra goyal sir.

Expert Shailesh Patel, thanks for agreeing.

Is the law as to pre-emption in force in your State? Even if so, the brother of the father-in-law is bound to purchase the property at market rate.
