This query is : Resolved
My grandfather expired before 2005, and my father expired in 2016. Both of them dint leave any will against a property. It's in the name of my grandfather and father jointly. Among my grandmother(alive), mother, me, and sister. how would the property split happen? Also, can my grandmom register/sell the property without anyone else's signature?
Follow-up question on top! Since my father and grandfather passed away, House tax receipts are changed in the name of my grandmother from 2017-18. she also collected the Gramakantam certificate from the Panchayat office. Using the above 2 documents she sold the property to a 3rd party without my Family's concern. When I looked through the Certfiedcopy certificate its mentioned as the property is passed on to my grandmother from ancestors whereas in the original documents which I have it's mentioned as self-acquired. The sub-registrar response was since she has submitted both house tax receipt and Gramakantam certificate, Two documents would be enough, and legal heirs signatures aren't necessary. What can be done in my current situation? is proceeding legally via court the only option?

Your grand father's property devolves on your father and grand mother in equal proportion.Yourself, mother ans sister entitled equal shsres from your fathers entitlement.Yourgrandmother can sell the portion entitled to her and not your fathers share.

Yes, your grand father's property Will pass on to your grand mother and your father's legal heirs equally. Your grand mother can not legally sale alone whole property ,she can and has right to sale only her 1/2 share in property.

It is supposed you are Hindu. Property in his name would be inherited by all his legal heirs including your grandma and your father.

In such case property in the name of your grand father would be inherited by all his legal heirs including your grandma and your father. Portion of property thus inherited by your father would be inherited by all his legal heirs including you and your mother.

In absence of details of all legal heirs, it is difficult to advice.

No is the reply. She can sell only her share.

Was your father the only child - in other words, had he no siblings?
