icon How to know or prove whether property is Ancestral or Self Acquired

I think my Grandfather's property is ancestral. How to know/confirm/prove. What is the process

A. Dear client,

Ancestral property refers to a property which has been held by a family member for than 4 generations without being separated or divided.

If your grandfather had got his share without being undivided or partitioned, the property would qualify as ancestral property. If your grandfather had partitioned amongst your father's siblings, please note that the property wouldn't qualify as ancestral.

Thank you

A. Dear Client,
The roof of a room or building is not explicitly mentioned in any deed or Will. An owner of a room or shop are the owner of both floor and rooftop and gets an unfettered right to use the same. Even in a multistoried building, the rooftop is marked as a common area for the purpose of use by all the floor/flat owners. So, your relative has right over the roof area of their shops.

A. Dear client,

There are two types of properties of a person, one is the self-acquired one and the other is the ancestral property. If it is your father's self-acquired property which is being given under the said will then that is enough for you to claim the house unless he makes a new will before his death.

But if the property in question is ancestral property, then it has to be disposed of in accordance with the Hindu Succession Act of 2005. According to the act, all the legal heirs will have ...ReadMore
