Hello
An unregistered settlement is invalid in eyes of law.
however you may try to enforce the unregistered settlement deed since it has already been signed and is n the knowledge of the legal heirs of the deceased title holder.
Whatever worth it is , you may consult a local lawyer who is well versed in the property laws and file a declaratory suit to declare your title on the basis o the the said unregistered settlement deed along with an interlocutory application seeking injunction restraining the defendants from interfering in your possession or alienating the property till the disposal of the main suit.

As it is unregistered his consent or witness is necessary if buyer is ready to buy sell it and hand over possession to him .

Advocate Mehrotra thanks for effect .under the present circumstances what is an other legal way to transfer my share with out Court order?
Advocate Y.K. Mehrotra (Advocate) 06 May 2022
To transfer you need ownership.
Ownership has to be acknowledged by the other party for you to make a sale. What can be done here is to conduct a negotiation like I normally do for such matter to get resolve before even getting to court.

Advocate Mehrotra I am asking of transfer share in property & not Ownership .i think there is a legal difference.I may be kindly correct.
Advocate Y.K. Mehrotra (Advocate) 06 May 2022
Sir,
Does your 50% share in an immovable property is specified. As to how many floors / rooms etc you have ownership for
Or does is it subject upon determination of such share?

Advocate Mehrota my apologies .for not mentioning that my share is 50% it is not specified by metes and bounds.what next...
Advocate Y.K. Mehrotra (Advocate) 06 May 2022
Section 7 of the Transfer of Property Act, 1882 provides that every person competent to contract i.e. a major and of sound mind or is not disqualified by law for contracting. Therefore even the interest of a co-owner or co-sharer can be sold, mortgaged, leased to another co-sharer or to a stranger.
The fact that the partition has not taken place by metes and bounds , does not stand in the way of the interest of a co-owner.

This post was sent to me by oneJolly LLB co-owner can sell even his undivided share in the absence of any partition deed. The buyer of the share steps into the shoes of the co-owner. He can enforce partition. He acquires the rights of the transferor.
There by as I understand by Advocate Mehrotra post o can now enter into a Mou in writing pertaining the transfer of my share in property as I understand. Thanking you

Hello sir!
The easiest way to get your share is through family settlement. A family settlement agreement is similar to the partition deed. However, one does not involve any formalities of registration and stamping. Signatures of all the family members are a must in the family settlement agreement. Partition through voluntary settlement must be voluntary and without any force, threat, coercion, or fraud. It must be a fair and equitable settlement. If family settlement doesn't work you can proceed with partition suit. It comes into play when there's a disagreement between family members over property.
You cannot sell the property during the pendency of the suit. Section 52 of the Transfer of Property Act, 1882 provides transfer of property of a pending suit wherein it is stated that in case of any suit or proceedings is continuing and any right to immovable property is directly and specifically in question, such property cannot be transferred or otherwise dealt with by any party to the suit or proceeding.
