Release deed challenged by one of the legal heirs

Dear friends My mother passed away interstate almost two years back. And we 4 legal heirs were left. 2 Sons and 2 daughter's. Me along with my brother and one sister made a release deed in favor of me duly, getting it registered post paying the stamp duty applicable. Now the sister who did not transacted in this deed has filed a case stating the release also in her favor in the said property and claiming 50% share in the property.

Who was owner of the property? Mother?

Which personal law is applicable; HIndu?

Sir,

She has a 1/4 share in the property and she can claim her share...

Warm Regards

The rights to mother were passed thru a will of father. And Hindu Succession law applies.

If the relinquishment deed is registered then you will get 3|4th share and the daughter who has not relinquished her share will get 1|4th share

As per registered relinquishment deed you'd get 3/4 th share in your mother's property and your sister would get only 1/4 th share.If you appreciate this answer please click the thank you button on this forum.
