He is planning to demolish the old house and construct a new house in which case we will not have any house to stay ...for that he agreed that we can construct our portion on first floor or second floor.

The information is incomplete for a complete answer. A lot would depend on how your brother got the property. If he is the sole absolute owner of the premises by virtue of a gift/will etc. Then I am afraid you or any other siblings for that matter don't have a sustainable right on the same, as you said the property is in his name

Hi Bharat,
Thank you for responding to my query!!
yes, unfortunately he (my elder brother) is sole owner by the virtue of will (registered)....but now he is suggesting that he will construct for him on ground floor and asking me to constuct on first floor. He told us he will write that first floor and second floor on our name by which he is asking us to vacate the house so that he can start the construction
so in this case how should i proceed ...what sort of doc / deed / agreement need to be executed before the construction starts and how do i register the first floor on my name

Hello Mr. Kumar, There are few things to be investigated due to mis match & incomplete details
1. Who bequethed the property in question to your brother's name. Pls be specific, because u r refering to two different WORDS - WILL & GIFT. Both mean different. Your parents could not have made the will since u r claiming the property is transferred long before your parents deceased. ( WILL will come to life only after the death of the EXECUTOR (s). Now if we understand that if it is Gifted by your parents to your elder brother in that case, How can there be a registered WILL. ? ? Pls be specific.
2. Since your brother is interested in constructing only ground floor and is interested in allowing you brothers to construct on the 1st and 2nd floor, there should not be any problem as per your rights in the property is concerned. However it is strictly advised not to move out of the premises in haste. Before going out of property I sincerely advise on getting the INTENTION of your brother on RECORD by way of MOU / JOINT DEVELOPMENT DEED and REGISTERING the same immediately to safe guard your interest / rights in property in question. Pls do not adhere to any oral understanding in this case at all. Get a DEED professionally drafted with help of LEGAL SPECIALIST in this matter. In case if you r in Bangalore I can assist you in the above said matter. If you need any further clarification pls feel free to contact on sohan1912@rediffmail.com or on 9845285555 in Bangalore.
