Hello,

Your grandmother, 3 sons, one daughter and daughter's son are the legal heirs of your grandfather. You have to get legal heirship certificate of grandfather and one expired daughter from court in the name of all legal heirs. Thereafter legal heirs can transfer their share in the name of 1 son.

Legal heirs of grandfather can relinquish their respective share to 1 son by registered relinquishment deed.It requires nominal stamp duty.

You stated that the property and a piece of land divided among all the legal heirs. Is it registered? If not, now register the partition deed, and then you put an application for the mutation in individual names. Then others can gift their share to one son. If not partitioned, all the legal heirs shall relinquish their share to one son.

Thanks for the replies, the property is now in the name of my grandfather.
1. I want to know the process?
2. Do I need to apply for partition and get the property mutated and then daughters will have to gift their share to one son, as gift deed require stamp duty in our state
3. Or should the daughters and other whose wish to give away their share get a relinquishment deed registered and the property will directly be transferred to one son
4. will the relinquishment deed allow transferring the the share of 3 legal heirs to only 1 son as their are 2 more sons(legal heir).

Somebody said
If the partition had not taken place, co-owner can not release his undivided share in the joint property in favour of few co owners, It should be in favour of all, in the interest of all co owners.
Is this true with relinquishment deed???

Relinquishment deed it to relinquish share in favor of all remaining ones.
To give share to any particular person is Transfer which is possible by sale or gift only. Both attract stamp duty at value of property.
To execute a relinquish or to sale or to gift No "prior partition" or 'division by court' or 'heirship Certificate' or 'succession certificate' required by law. All these are optional and fancy items.

If the property has been divided, how it is in the name of grandfather. You have not posted all the material facts.
