On the passing away of the grandfather, the property  is jointly vested with all the legal heirs. The partition could be effected and deed executed anytime thereafter.

In the normal course, the grandson is not a legal heir.

I am afraid that the correct meaning of the partition deed was properly understood.   Every co-sharer is entitled to the shares, and unless the property is divided in metes and bounds it remains a joint property, and those who are enjoying the property are for themselves and on behalf of all co-sharers.  The internal document of understanding showing such metes and bounds allocated for each such co-sharer is a partition deed.

I fully agree with expert Mr. P Venu and Mr. GLN Parshad.

To add to the above opinion and advise, there is no limitation for filing a suit for partition amongst shareholders/ successors.
