1. If your father died leaving his self acquired property then you did have due share in it.

2. However if he died leaving his ancestral property you are rightly deprived of.

3. However in any event the property left by your mother is liable for equal division among all the brothers and sisters if she has died without any Will.

4. So to claim your share in the property left by your mother you can file a suit for partition and seek injunction on sale of remaining properties.

1. since your father died in 1997, you do not become a coparcenor and thus do not have any share in coparcenary property

2. as the property stood divided after your father's demise, between your mother and 3 brothers, you do have a share in the share which was left by your late mother

3. you cannot claim any share which had gone to your brothers. they can deal with their respective shares in any manner they deem fit

4. so your mother had 1/4th share. After her demise her share will go to the children i.e. you and 3 brothers.

5. That means you have 1/4th share in the 1/4th share left by you mother. So presently you have 1/16th share or 6.25% share in the property which you can claim

Dear Client,

Are you 4 brothers ?

If yes than after father death his property will distribute in 5 parts. 1/5 share of each including you.

And after mother death her share will distribute by 1/4th each.

File partition and cancellation of sale deed, and transfer to son.

You have no share in ancestral property as your father died before 2005

2) property which has remained undivided for four generations is ancestral property

3) if it is your grandfather self acquired property then on his demise your father inherited it then it would not ancestral property and you can claim share in said property

Dear sir,

After the death of your father you and your brothers and your mother became heirs to the property and after her death your brothers and you became the sole owners. Although the mutation was done but whether division of property was completed? If yes then you have your own demarcated chunk of land and you can sell it. But it seems that although mutation was performed but the land was not divided. Therefore your brother could not have sold his land. Therefore you can challenge the sale and transfer of land.

Regards.

You have a right for a legitimate share in your father's property at par with your mother and brothers.

You can file a partition suit seeking partition of the entire properties including the ones sold by your brothers and separate possession of your share in the said properties.

A daughter can only hold a right to the ancestral property if the father has died after this amendment came into force in 2005, the Supreme Court had held.

In other words, the father would have to be alive till September 9, 2005, for the daughter to become a co-sharer of his property along with her male siblings.

So, you can't claim any share in your father's property, but you can claim your one-fourth share in your mother's share of property, as she had expired after the commencement of the act.
