A. Dear Client,
The Government land cannot be a subject matter of a transaction between the private parties. Instead, the Government acquires private land whenever required for public purposes under the Land Acquisition Act. How can you acquire a piece of government land from a person who unauthorisedly occupied the said land? Instead of compensation or financial gain, you will be evicted forcibly from the said land and booked for illegal encroachment of government land and face criminal prosecutio ...ReadMore

icon Balcony extension

Is it allowed to extend balcony of 2nd floor of builder floor in authorised jasola? I purchased 1st floor, can I cover my balcony by polycarbonate sheet to save from rain water?


A. Dear Client,
It is important to obtain the permission of the respective builder or society to make any changes in the apartment flat. The modifications or additions that you seek to make to the flat should be in accordance with Society Rules and should not deviate from the approved building plan. So, in this case, you can connect with the Society to enquire and get approval about the same.
Hope it helps.
Thank you.

A. Dear Clients,
If your neighbors dig the bore well in the government sanctioned area, with the permission of the concerned authorities then you cannot raise an objection. But, if your neighbor undertakes the installation work without proper authentication and due diligence, then you can file a complaint about the same to the concerned authorities.
Hope it helps.

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,
son cannot lay claim to the property or have any right over it till the time the mother is alive, even if he is named as the sole beneficiary in the will. This goes for both self acquired and ancestral share. A son can, therefore, claim a right in the self-earned property of his mother if the mother has died intestate (i.e., without a will).
Even the share of ancestral property falling to the mother after the partition of the property becomes her absolute property and is treated as ...ReadMore

Under Hindu Succession Act, only the property inherited for four or more generations through paternal ancestors can be termed as ancestral. The property received by your mother through a gift deed accounts to her self-acquired property. So, her children being the Class 1 heirs are legally entitled to inherit the share of her self-acquired property according to the law of inheritance. However, your moth ...ReadMore
