Respected Experts , Some of the Experts from LAWYERS CLUB INDIA says that “ the self acquired property of father inherited by his son after the death of father will be his exclusive property as per Section-8 of HSA 1956 and it will be not his ancestral property and the son has the liberty to gift it to anybody he wants. Since it is not an ancestral property, the provisions of HSA (Amendment) Act, 2005 will have no application at all to the matter.”
I wants the Experts comments on this matter please.
