A. Hi,
Using a General Power of Attorney to purchase a property is a common technique of transacting in Indian real estate. Transferring property through GPA is, however, unlawful, according to a Supreme Court of India judgement issued in 2011.

A. Hello,
lis pendens refers to a pending legal action or a formal notification of one. The sale deed documents the transfer of property ownership from the seller (vendor) to the buyer (purchaser) (Purchaser). The selling deed effectively completes the transaction. In your instance, further information is necessary.
Thank you very much.

A. Here, S3 is a half-blood child. Half-blood children share the same natural mother or father but not the same two natural parents. If all aspects of the relation to the person from whom one is expecting to inherit property remain same, then the one who is of a biological descent shall be taken into preference. The father's biological child (born of the previous wife) has the first right over the property as against. In short, full blood is preferred to half-blood relations.

A. Hi,
You should contact the closest BLRO to find out who owns the property and then try to convert it to your name. Because all sons have a right to ancestral property by birth, the father cannot give it to one son at the cost of the others. Thanks to a 2005 amendment to the Hindu Succession Act, daughters are now coparceners and have a right to the family property. In this property since it is in the name of someone else you can either approach them or show that there is more than 12 years of p ...ReadMore

A. Hello,
Intestate Succession in the Event of a Male Death. If a man dies intestate, that is, without a will, his assets are dispersed according to the Hindu Succession Act, and the property is passed to the deceased's lawful heirs. In this situation, the length of time is determined by the value of the property and the number of legal encumbrances owed to the deceased person's legal heirs.You can get a gift if your stepmother transfers it in your name.
Thank you.
