I need advice to understand the next steps.
My father died of heart attack around 5 years back. He had bought a house from DDA on a housing loan. Most of the loan was still pending when he expired. All the pending loans have now been cleared by my mother who is practising as a doctor. She is still in the process of getting the house transferred on her name.
My sister is a divorcee and came back home couple of years back. She also filed harassment case on her husband but finally the case is now stalled without any result. She is now in custody of her daughter and is a working lady.
I am the son, working in another state (moved some months back). Since I have moved my sister has started acting as if she owns the house and is now ill treating my mother. When my mother asks her to behave or leave the house, she demands her share and says that she will not go. This behaviour is depressing my mother a lot and is affecting her health. She was ok till the time I was staying in the house. I have also invested a lot in getting the house renovated. Till the time I was staying in that house I was taking all the responsibility of maintaining the house.
Now I need to know, what rights does my mother have towards the house?
What rights does my sister have towards the house?
Can my mother ask my sister to vacate the premises?
Does my mother have any problem if the house is not yet transferred on her name? If it is on my Father's name still, does my sister have any right on the property?
What is my rights towards the property?
