A. Dear Client,

While the validity of a will made by your grandmother-in-law is being challenged by other claimants of the property, your mother-in-law cannot be considered the owner of the property until the civil suit is finally disposed of by the court, upholding the validity of the will that confers title or ownership to her. Consequently, without clear title or ownership of the property, your mother-in-law cannot create a tenancy on the property or sub-let a part of it to others.

A. Dear Client,

If you failed to include a property in a civil suit filed in 2009 due to lack of documents, you may have lost your right to claim a share in that property. Article 65 of the Limitation Act, 1963, sets a limitation period of 12 years for filing a suit for possession of immovable property or any interest based on title by the owner or legal heirs. This period begins when the defendant's possession becomes adverse to the plaintiff. Failure to file within this period can result in the ...ReadMore

A. Dear Client,

Furthermore, without ownership of a specific share, a coparcener or legal heir cannot legally bequeath their share via a Will, rendering such a Will invalid. Individual division of an undivided inherited property without a Court decree is not permitted. As a legal heir and coparcener, you or your father can file a partition suit in Civil Court to obtain y ...ReadMore

In cases of intestate succession, where a deceased owner leaves no will, all surviving legal heirs and family members are entitled to an equal share in the property. A succession certificate can substantiate the claim of a legal heir to obtain their share in the property.
