Father purchased a property and in sale deed got his son as a witness signatory. Later the Father got himself and his son entered in the Mutation entry Lank Bank records.
Now,
1) Can the son having name in the Mutation entry and also signatory as withness in purchase sale deed, claim the property be transferred in his name of its basis ?
2) Also, the father did not leave any will for that property so can other son and daughter claim any right on the property ?
Mere mutation in revenue records can neither get nor remove a title on the property. All legal heirs of your deceased Hindu father are entitled to an equal share. (Wife and all children). In other words, you are just a trustee in possession of the intestate property that remained undivided, and the other son and daughter are having equal rights with you, and being a witness or having a mutation in your name can not get you a single rupee additional benefit. The transfer of a property can only be legally enforceable through a registered deed (Gift) or will or settlement deed etc.
