Dear Client,

This can be done by court declaration of CIVIL death that person not heard from seven years.

You need death certificate of deceased person and NOC of legal heirs to transfer property in father name

You have to produce the link to get the property transferred in your name another case the rest of the property will be transferred as per your shareholding and the other property will remain be in the name of the deceased person as you don't have the death certificate any other evidence of his death

1) You can transfer your name as per Indian Succession Act , so just enter your father's name and all of your siblings.

This is my response to you:

1. Send a legal notice to the last known address;

2. You must also take out an advertisement in the newspaper one local and other national and invite claims;

3. If nobody shows up after 30 days then stake your claim;

4. To legally claim the property, file a suit for declaration of right, title and interest in the property;

5. Consult a local lawyer and then take legal steps forward.

Hello,

if NOC and death certificate are not available, then file a declaration suit to the effect that your grandfather was the owner and has the clear title of the land. In the said case newspaper publication etc will be made.

thereafter on the basis of the said declaration the property will be transferred.

Regards

Let me know if I can be of some help

If nobody has claimed that property and your grandfather had been maintaining that property as well as paying all the bills, you can file a suit for declaration in Civil Court to declare you owner of the property.

You first of all apply for transfer of the property to your father's name by producing the Will on his name to the concerned authorities, let them give a reply stating what all you have mentioned above.

After that you can send notice published in the newspaper since you are not knowing their particulars or address.

With the process completed, and if necessary by executing an indemnity bond, indemnifying the future event, if insisted by the authorities, along with the newspaper publication, you may apply for transfer once again, this time with a duly notarised affidavit besides other documents mentioned above.

If the authorities turn a deaf ear this time also, get their reply in writing and then approach court seeking direction to the concerned authorities to transfer the proeprty to your father's name based on the will and other other documents submitted to the authorities.
