A Missing Person Would be declared Dead only after 7 years of Missing Legally,Prior to that Formalities /Procedures Like Missing complaint with concerned Police and News Paper advt regarding this all should have been Completed.Till then his Family members can not have any legal rights on his Property Or Share.

If at all they are in hurry to Sell Consult a Good advocate and Seek Permission from Court on Valid legal Reasons to sell and Deposit the brother's share in court.Even for that copy and proofs of Police Complaint and news paper advt to be enclosed and sufficient time to be given before approaching the Court.Consult a Local good Advocate.

Author has not mentioned for which period C is missing?
If 7 years have passed, his civil death need to be got declared from appropriate authority.
