property related issue property related issue

My great-grandfather & his own brother have 24 acres of land (both brothers divided 12 acres each & they became separated). My grandfather had 3 sons. After his demise 3 sons divided the property & took 4 acres each & legally registered on their names. After that 3 sons also became separated. Now my father (2nd son of grandfather) has 2 sons & 1 daughter. All of them are married. Now I and my brother (both sons) purchased property (Agri land/house) from my father. Dad also agreed for the same and everything happened legally through the sale deed in 2021. And present my father is still alive.  Now the question is my sister (daughter of my father) have any right to claim the property?
Because as per my knowledge the property is already divided from my grandfather's & it becomes self-acquired property. And self-acquired property can give to anyone according to the owner's wish & the owner is still alive. And if required any property WILL my father is ready to do the same on son's name.

A.Dear Sir,
If it has not lost the factum of ancestral property then your sisters can file suit for partition but you can drag on for 10 years.

A.you pasted this on other website also but they not posted it for 2-3 days.


Sister have right over property.
But you already purchased it from your father.

So it depends on that sale deed.
She want her share after getting huge dowry and spending lot in her marriage.
But there is way so that she will not get anything.

A.Hi,
Father can sell the property whomever he wishes to. The legal heirs cannot claim any share in self acquired property.

A.Hi,
Yes, the self-acquired property can be disposed of by the father however he wishes to do so. You need not worry since you have the registered sale deed to refute any future claims.

A.This property that you are talking about is not self acquired property but is inherited property which your father has inherited from his father you have subsequently inherited from your father. Although you can show that you purchased the property from your father but that was what he had inherited from his father and thus becomes ancestral property. Owing to that reasoning your sisters will have the right to ask for their rights post 2005.
