I have two sons A and B and elder son "A" expired intestate married and no kids I have dispute with daughter in law and we came to compromise to share the properties and in dillemma to go for parittion deed or relinquishment or settlement deed..
I would like to execute a settlement deed with my daughter in law (widow with no kids). Registrar officer says she is not our family member and we have to pay 3% stamp duty.
Why son wife widow will be treated as outside family member after 10 year of marriage living in joint family.?. He arugues if son living she will be part of the family member and now she is not family member.
please advise here.
