Ancestral Property:

Property acquired by the Hindu great grand father, which then passes undivided down the next three generations up to the present generation of great grand son/daughter.……………..i.e. 4 generations old.  

 

Properties inherited from mother, grandmother, uncle and even brother is not ancestral property. Property inherited by will and gift are not ancestral properties.

 

Reassure yourself if the said property is of ancestral nature.
