First get the property mutated in your name in record of rights of tehsil/development authority /or municipality,as your case be.
Find a buyer,negotiate consideration,execute
a sale deed ,get it registered.All expenses
of registration including stamp duty is to be born by the buyer.

If you are his only legal heir surviving then you can sell his property on production of his death certificate.
However of he has left any other legal heirs besides you, then you have to take all of them to sell the property jointly.

You cannot sell the property unless the same is transferred in your name in the revenue records of your state government.
mutation is necessary as per the land revenue code of every state.
You need to apply to the Tahsildar having jurisdiction on your locality for the mutation. Once it is done, you can sell the property.

You have not mentioned about the legal heirs of your deceased father. All legal heirs are required to get the mutation in their name and thereafter every co-sharer is free to sale his own share as per law.
