How to get property registered on my name

(Querist) 13 March 2013 This query is : Resolved 
Hello,

My grandfather had written a will on which he stated as my father will own a property. After few months , both Grand father & my father expired. Now i just have a xerox copy of the will & no documents related to the property.I am the only daughter. Please suggest me with the next steps on getting the property registered on my name.

File for probate case and then apply for mutation.

sorry dont mind. Can you please explain it clearly?
prabhakar singh (Expert) 13 March 2013
Was your father the only son of your grand father?

Is the will whose photo copy is with you is registered one or unregistered one?

And where is the original will.?

You may come back with answers to my enquiry.
Chandrika B R (Querist) 13 March 2013
My Grandfather had 3 sons, he had given equal share of property to all sons in the will. My father had got 1 residential property. I have a photo copy of registered will
Chandrika B R (Querist) 13 March 2013
The original will is lost. I inquired with family members but nobody have it
prabhakar singh (Expert) 13 March 2013
One more question i forgot to ask that is there any Executor appointed in the will?
I mean GF writing that after his death Mr. So and So shall take steps to enforce the Will/
Chandrika B R (Querist) 13 March 2013
Nothing. It is just mentioned as "After death, this son will own this property"
Chandrika B R (Querist) 13 March 2013
1 more thing i need to mention, i have been paying the property tax of that location & also i have Khata on my name. But i dont have registered papers which prove that i own the property

Why had you not provided the facts when you were posting your query and why a piece-meal system suits you?

prabhakar singh (Expert) 13 March 2013
Then :

1.All of first apply for a certified copy of the will from the sub registrar office where it was registered.

2.Apply in the court of District Judge for grant of a letter of administration under the provisions of the Indian Succession Act
making party to other beneficiaries of Will.

3.After grant of letter of administration apply for mutation before the municipal board in whose jurisdiction house given to your father situate.

This is all.

But you would need a civil law practitioner
to do all this. better get one locally.

"But i dont have registered papers which prove that i own the property"


ARE YOU AWARE HOW AND WHEN YOU GRAND FATHER ACQUIRED THESE PROPERTIES BEQUEATHED BY WILL TO HIS THREE SONS??
Chandrika B R (Querist) 13 March 2013
I dont know the above details sir
prabhakar singh (Expert) 13 March 2013
TRY TO INQUIRE IF YOUR GRAND FATHER INHERITED FROM HIS FATHER OR BOUGHT THESE FROM HIS FUNDS BY ANY SALE DEED.

IF ALL WAS ANCESTRAL THEN PROBABILITY IS THAT THERE WOULD BE FOUND NO DOCUMENT.

BUT IN CASE ALL WAS PURCHASED BY SALE DEEDS,
YOU CAN GET SALE DEEDS COPY AFTER SEARCH FROM REGISTRATION OFFICE.

Hello Sir,

I inquired regarding this & got to know that my grandfather had purchased it from other person & its been registered. Since i dont have papers, i will apply for certified copy of will & sale deed. Can you please let me know what are the next steps after getting those 2 papers??
Chandrika B R (Querist) 14 March 2013
2 papers mean The will & Sale deed...
Chandrika B R (Querist) 14 March 2013
Hello Prabhakar sir, Can you please guide me with next steps? & also what are the documents required for submitting application for duplicate sale deed?
Raj Kumar Makkad (Expert) 14 March 2013
First obtain those documents and thereafter you should approach a local lawyer dealing in civil side and should take his advice which shall be based upon the contents of the documents otherwise our advice may not be proper.
prabhakar singh (Expert) 14 March 2013
To obtain certified copy of WILL you may be asked to furnish a notary affidavit showing that you are grand daughter of the testator who wrote will in his son's favor who was your father and both have died on such and such dates,and you need certified copy of the will as original has been lost as it came never in your hands.

In addition they have a form to be filled for copy ,prescribed fees is charged.

For copy of sale deed you need to inspect the index register first to note down detail and then to apply for copy filing the form.
