icon Land dispute - my grandfather has registered his property

In 1970 my grandfather has registered his property to only one of his son among three now how does the other two son avail the property which was once his father's.?


A. Dear client In an ancestral property, all the sons have a right by birth and therefore, the father cannot give the ancestral property to one son to the exclusion of others. After amendment of 2005 in the Hindu Succession Act, even daughters are coparceners and have a right in the ancestral property.

A. Dear client since the ploy was 1st sold to person B, he is the legal owner of the plot. He is egally in possession of the land from the date of registration. The seller or any other person has no rights what so ever now even if the mistake is genuine. The rectification deed (given that eastern boundary is wrongly mentioned), should have been done by the seller within 1 year from the date of the deed. it cannot be corrected now.
Thankyou

icon My uncle and aunts registered

My uncle and aunts registered my grandfathers property to one of cousin without even mentioning my fathers name and transferred the property ? What section of offense does this fall under


A. Dear client such transfer is not legal. But in India most of the culprits dupe the buyer by selling the property as their share of property.

When the other owner comes to know of it, he would go to court and get an injunction making the buyer go through hell of a process. Further you can also file the case of illegal transfer of property by forgery and impersonation.
