Has the grandparents' properties partitioned subsequent to their lifetime but during the lifetime of the unmarried aunt? Has the unmarried left any property intestate i.e. without making a Will? If any such properties are there, who is in possession?

Thanks for your response sir .

All the properties jewelry and bank bonds are her own earnings they are not inherited from my grandparents parents.

After her death in July 2020 her younger brother who is alive ie my father's younger brother took away all the bank bonds property documents and jewelry and assured of a proper distribution among us but now he wants to soley take away all of it and he is not disclosing about what are all there what properties are there who is the nominee in bank bonds how much jewelry is there anything is not being disclosed he is saying I don't have any Wrights to question about it .is that true sir ???

All the siblings (direct brothers and sisters) of the deceased person have equal share in her property. Children of the other preciously deceased members divide the share of their parents amongst themselves.

The property was inherited or self acquired of your grandparents and it was intestate or any will was executed  ?

Whether your grandmother was title holder or grandfather ?

If the property was left intestate by your grandparents, it will devolve equally amongst all siblings, whether alive or dead.

However, for those who have died their children/ spouse shall get his/ her share.
