Dear S/Shri Ramachandran and Sarvesh,
Probably you are referring to a similar earlier question. But the same was posted by one Mr. Alex where he mentioned that the property was funded by his elder son and he had 2 sons and 4 daughters. On the other hand the present question has been posted by Mr. Maneesh and stated that he funded the property and also he has only 1 daughter (not 4). So, it seems to be a separate question by a separate person and needs due attention of the experts for his satisfaction.
About answer to the problems, my views are as follows:
1) If no will exists, all the blood relations, i.e., the husband, 2 sons and the daughter will be the legal heirs of the property in equal part, irrespective of whether the purchase was funded by the husband; and
2) Sale can be made only jointly by all the legal heirs with their mutual consent.
