My broker needed a orginal property documents eventhough we provided photocopies of our documents in pdf. Is it safe to give


A. Dear Client,
If essentially required you can show the original documents of the property, but it is both unsafe and risky to give original property documents to a real estate broker who may misuse it later on. Xerox copies of documents are sufficient to meet any purpose in real estate matters. The original link deeds or documents of the property are given on completion of the registration process.

icon Right over mother's ancestral property

Do I have any legal right over my mother's ancestral property. Can she dispose it off during her lifetime or execute a will ?


A. Dear Client,
A son cannot claim a share in the ancestral property of her mother or have any right over it which is always considered as her self-acquired property till the time the mother is alive, even if he is named as the sole beneficiary in the will. The son is treated as a Class I heir of his father's property. He has a legal right over his father's ancestral property. He also has an equal share in his father's self-acquired property if the father dies intestate
