A. Hello Client,

If the government has acquired the land and is willing to compensate for the same, you may get a NOC from your uncle stating that he is willingly giving up his share of the compensation and he has no objection on you getting the whole compensation. Also, you may inquire from the concerned department regarding any other document required for the same.


Thanks & Regards

A. Dear Client
The sub-registrar is right that they do not keep record of the unregistered GPA and also it is important to note that the PoA for property must be registered. The question is now why do you need the PoA? If your property is registered then you have to live with that if not then you might face some problem if any legal issues creep up.

A. Dear client,
You question is ambiguous in many ways. But to answer your question, her daughter can claim only that share of the property that the mother is owning and has proper title deed of. If the gift deed was made with coercion or misrepresentation, that will aslo be void.

icon Construction work - by labour contract

We have started the construction of our home by labour contract. But due to some disagreement we had to stop the construction. Now the labour is asking for excess payment. We have already payed him ex


A. Dear client,
1) ask the builder to give detailed break up of amount payable towards service tax , late fees etc
2) you should insist on a demand letter
3) also receipt for payments made by you
4) don't pay without any demand letter
You don't have to pay him if he is not willing to continue. If you have a formal agreement, then you can sue him for specific performance. If not, give a police complaint in your local jurisdiction.
