My parents are Joint Title-Owners of a Flat in a CHS in Navi Mumbai, Maharashtra. They have jointly signed a single nomination form nominating me (their son) as the nominee. The nomination form has been recorded in the CHS nomination register.
My parents (both alive) are Resident Indian Citizens and I am an OCI holder.
I just want to understand the complete process and to make sure everything is in place beforehand.
Questions:
1. Is a single nomination form jointly signed by the joint holders legally valid?
2. After one of the holder passes away, does the nomination continue to be valid ? Does the CHS need to be informed about the passing away of one of the holders? Is there anything to be done after one holder passes away to continue to keep the nomination valid?
3. When does the property actually transmit to the nominee - is it after both the holders pass away? And what are the steps to get the property registered in the nominee's name in the CHS register? Other than the CHS, are there any Government Agencies, where the new owner name needs to be registered? What are the share certificate and title documents the nominee should obtain from the CHS and Government Agencies to make sure the title transfer is complete?
4. Is there anything specific I as the nominee should be aware of because I am an OCI?
Thanks in advance for your responses.
