A. Dear Client,

If a loan is not obtained by pledging property with a financial institution and a registered mortgage deed is not executed, the registry lacks the ability to update the property status, and it won't be reflected in the Encumbrance Certificate (EC). Therefore, after repaying a personal loan and receiving the original property deed, it is necessary to formally notify the Registry in writing to ensure the records are updated. Subsequently, you can apply to the Registry for the transf ...ReadMore

A. Dear Client,

Any construction that deviates from the approved building plan is considered illegal and unauthorized, particularly after the issuance of a Completion Certificate (CC) or Occupancy Certificate (OC) by the building plan-approving authority.

The rooftops of a building are typically considered open terraces or open areas, which form part of the common area usable for all the floor owners of the multistoried building. Legally, a builder or developer does not have the right to sell th ...ReadMore

A. Dear Client,

Nomination in financial instruments, such as fixed deposits, primarily designates a person (nominee) to receive the proceeds or benefits of the asset upon the death of the account holder. However, the nominee does not become the owner of the asset; instead, they act as a custodian or trustee.

The legal ownership of the assets, including fixed deposits, is determined by succession laws in the absence of a will. In case of the depositor's death intestate (without a will), the legal ...ReadMore

A. Dear Client,

In a multistoried building, any open space or open terrace is typically considered a common area. Common areas are shared spaces for the use and enjoyment of all the residents in the building, and individual flat owners are generally not allowed to use or occupy them for personal use unless otherwise specified in the bylaws of the housing society.

If a society takes action to prevent a flat owner from using or occupying such common areas for personal use, it is likely in accordan ...ReadMore

A. Dear Client,

If the property was originally transferred to the grandsons and granddaughters in 1998 and your grandfather passed away in 2005, it raises concerns if the property was subsequently sold in 2018 by someone other than the grandsons and granddaughters. In this scenario, where the property is considered ancestral and the grandchildren have entitlement to an equal share in it since their birth, it may be necessary to take legal action to protect their rights.

You may consider filing a ...ReadMore

A. Dear Client,

An individual acquires the right to ancestral property by birth. Ancestral property typically refers to property inherited for four or more generations that has not been divided or sold off. In the case of the property inherited by your grandfather, it is considered ancestral property, and all the grandchildren are entitled to an equal share in the property since their birth.

It is important to note that a coparcener, in this case, your grandfather, does not have the right to uni ...ReadMore

A. Dear Client,

There is no law against extra-marital affairs in India. Adultery, which was previously a criminal offense, was decriminalized by the Supreme Court of India, declaring it unconstitutional. Despite the absence of criminal consequences, adultery can still be considered grounds for divorce, and it may have legal and social consequences, particularly for women.

In the given scenario, seeking guidance from a professional counselor with expertise in dealing with extramarital affairs can ...ReadMore

A. Dear Client,

In the case of an ancestral property left by your father intestate (without a will), the legal heirs are entitled to an equal share in the property. The right to ancestral property is acquired by birth, and all surviving legal heirs, typically children, have an equal claim to the property. Ancestral property is generally characterized by being inherited for four or more generations and remaining undivided.

Until an undivided ancestral property is partitioned through a decree of p ...ReadMore

A. Dear Client,

Instead of relying solely on a Lease and License Agreement (L&L Agreement), you may consider having your father nominate your name or change the existing nomination (if any) in favor of you for the specific flat/apartment in the Society. Once the nomination is completed, there may be no need for your father to obtain a No Objection Certificate (NOC) from the Society for your occupancy or stay in the said flat.

Nomination is a recognized and accepted procedure that can streamline ...ReadMore
