Property dispute

(Querist) 26 September 2012 This query is : Resolved 
Dear Sir,

Dear Sir,

My grandfather expired in 1970. He was having 2 sons and 3 daughters. At the time of his death he has made a registered will for the wealth and assets he has earned during his life time.

He had mention that after his death all the poperty will be transferred to his sons and the daughters were excluded from his property.

However after his death the daughters has included theri name on the property card.


Now the daughers are asking for the share in the said property.


Now the situation is such that both the sons are dead and the daughters are fighting for the share with the grand sons.


Whether they have legal standng for the daughters ?

Regards,
Rajesh

Inclusion of name on the property card will not alter the will. The will made by your grandfather will operate with full vigour. The share bequeathed to the sons will devolve on the grandsons. Defend the case strongly, daughters have no share..

If the property is self acquired and there is no ancestral property, the will prevails and the daughters have no rights. You should apply to the Collector for correction of the property records and also apply for correction in the municipal records at the earliest.

Inclusion of name in the property card can't alter the validity of will. In this case the will only prevail. The self acquired property bequeathed to son by will only devolve to grandsons. So fight your case strongly with detail.

you have not stated what and where the fight is going on.

proceed for correction of record on the basis of registered will.

Where are you located?In presidency towns you need probate/or letter of administration with
regard to will.

Ur Advocate should be able to tell u. The requisite procedures such as issue of paper publication, furnishing of affidavits by the witnesses to the will etc have to be comkpleted. It all depends on the time awailable with the court. However it hsould be over within a period of 8 to 9 months.

Depends upon the importance and urgency of the case as compared to the other pre-listed cases.
