I have a shop premises which was inherited by me through my chachi after her death. The shop is on pagdi system since my chacha first purchased it many years back. He used to receive regular rent receipts in his name but after his death in 2007 the shop was transferred in my chachi name by the Landlord and he incorporated her name in rent receipt. Before her death in 2011, she requested the landlord to add my name in the rent receipt as she did not have any kids but the landlord discouraged her to do so and refused to add my name. Now I am holding the possession of the shop premises and I also have all the old files and papers of the shop and it has come to my knowledge by the neighboring shops that the landlord has changed but they don't know whom to pay the rent to as it seems that a group of people have purchased the land from the earlier landlord but are not disclosing as to whom to pay the rent. The reason for this is the road widening proposal which is going to be done in sometime now. I would like to know how can i transfer my chachi name in my name and whom should i approach to strengthen my holding of the shop premises ?
