1. Your grandfather's property will be divided amongst his two legal heirs being your father, since deceased and your uncle (assuming that your grandmother is no more).
2. Since your father has demised, you shall inherit his said inherited share of hi father's property.
3. You can conduct search from the registry office in your grand father's name as title holder of properties to ascertain properties of your paternal side.
Your grand fathers property does not comes under the head ancestral property . Ancestral property is defined as the property whose title has not changed for last 4 generations i.e. from great grandfather to great grandson without being interrupted by any partition/settlement/sale/gift deed or will. If it is not so, then it is not an ancestral property.
So after the death of grand father his property inherited to his legal heirs ie; his children and wife equally.
You and your sister can get the share by way of succession. Both of you can only get the share which is allotted to your father.If any person does not wiling to distributed the same,then you may approach the civil court by filing partition suit.
You and your sister and any other siblings
along with yor mother are entitled to your father's share in the property.
You can get the details and copies of the ancestral properties from the jurisdictional Sub-registrar office.
1. Since the property of your grandfather was not divided it devolved through succession on his children. On the demise of your father his share further devolved on his widow and children. So you have a definite share in the property which you may cull out by filing a suit for partition in the civil court.
2. The records can be obtained by conducting a title search in the office of jurisdictional sub-registrar.
your father's share shall be devolved upon you and your sister. it shall be devolved on your sister if your father died after 20 sep. 2005 otherwise it shall be devolved upon you only.
when a property has been devolving from generation to generation it is called ancestral property. you can get all the records from collector's office. lank book records shows nature of the land. it is mentioned in the record that it is ancestral property.
