The certified photocopy of the registered property document can be obtained from the concerned SRO's office.

For the lost share certificate he can write to the company to issue the duplicate certificate for which he may comply with the necessary formalities as instructed to him.

If necessary he may even lodge a police complaint, obtain an acknowledgement from police about the complaint and can attach the copy of this acknowledgment along with his application seeking duplicate copy of the certificate he now seeks.

If your husband is having a share in the property then he can file a partition suit agaisnt the other shareholder. For the documents, as suggested earlier, he can get a certified copy from the registrar's office.

If your father in law is not allowing you into that hose, then your husband can file a partition suit and claim his share in the court of law, no criminal complaint will be maintainable against your father in law for this reason.

If he has filed a maintenance case against your husband, this has to be challenged on merits in your side.
