flat: Joint holding

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 11 May 2011 This query is : Resolved 
A flat is jointly held in the name of the name of two brothers(say A,B). 'A' invested the whole money in buying the flat in 1990 but got the flat registered jointly in his and his brother's(B) name. The flat is located at Kolkata and 'B' resides in it. 'A' lives in Delhi.
Now there is a conflict between the two brothers and 'B' is refusing to give any share in the flat that is originally owned by 'A' and jointly owned by 'A & B' in legal terms.
All telephone,gas and electricity connection is also in the name of 'A'.
I am Mr. A.
Pls provide the legal advice.

Your brother B is duly owner of 1/2 share. You can file a civil suit for partition and possession accordingly.
R.Ramachandran (Expert) 11 May 2011
I completely agree with the views of Mr. Makkad. You can get only 50% share in the property. Even to get that you have to file a suit for partition and possession as advised by Mr. Makkad.
