Session act 1956 daughters property authority
5 years ago
I am 21 years old girl my name is kalpana i want my rights against my fathers property as per session act 1956 daughters can get rights without getting married or not
A.I will again clarify, What I referred above is when it is ancestral property. If it is your father`s self acquired property then he can dispose off it during his life time, or will it away as he pleases, otherwise it will openb up under Indian succession Act and you will get a right. In summary there is no way you get it immediately.

A.absolutely no right over your mother`s property. But till your 18th year you have right of maintenance over your father. Your right to father arises only during a partition, but your cannot open up a partition by yourself. Means you have to wait for a partition to take place. Some High Courts have given different views. It is a very complicated topic right now.

A.Facts not clear. you did not mention whether your father is alive or deceased. If deceased is there a Will?
As per the Supreme Court landmark judgement, daughters, married or not, have equal rights and liabilities in the ancestral property. However this rule is not applicable where the property is a self-earned property of your father. He is absolute owner of his own property and can give to anyone he desire either by gift deed or Will. Neither a male heir nor the female heir have any right over the self earned property of his father during his lifetime. Your right to claim over your father's self-earned property arises only after his demise wherein he died intestate. Where a male hindu dies intestate, his property will devolve upon his Class One heir i.e. your mother, brothers and sisters.........
