A petition (For Succession Certificate ) needs to be filed with the district court or high court within whose jurisdiction the asset is located. The name and relationship of the petitioner, the names of all heirs of the deceased, details about the time, date and place of death should be mentioned in the application. A copy of the death certificate has to be produced.

If it is a registered will then the property can be transferred to your name as per the Chandigarh housing board rules.

If the same is not registered then get the same probated and approach the CHB.

You will have to get probate from Civil Court if the will is not registered.

After probate, the property can be transferred in,your name.

If will is registered, that alone would suffice.

The property as per will goes to your father and after his death will be divided in mother and children for your father's share.

In case your sister is not interested in the property and provides NOC or relinquishment deed in this regard then the property can be transferred to the remaining shareholders.

Please keep in mind that all of you are entitled to one third of the building not of the whole building

Firslty, as per the information mentioned in the present query, makes it clear that the property was not an anscestral one for your grandfather also ( meaning here y is that he also bought it as d self acquired not got from his anscestors).

Secondly, now, your grandmother has also passed away without living any will.

Thirdly, property will be divided between all three brothers.

Fourhtly, as your father has also been passed away, you need to get the legal heir certificate from the court as legal representative of your father.

Fifthly, then you will be allowed share for your father then you may decide as to whom it should get registered.

1. Will executed by GrandFather CANNOT be changed by GrandMother, in anyway.

2. Execute a Registered "Family Settlement Deed", between ALL the residual legal heirs, delegating portions of the property, by mutual consent & signatures, wherein selective property piece's can to given to respective persons. This will be sufficient for all futuristic legal purposes and shall remain irrevocable by the signing parties.

you will have to produce the true copy of the Will and death certificate of your grandfather, grandmother and your father alongwith certain documents described below to the competent authorities to transfer and mutate your name in the property records

the other documents are - NOC Affidavits from all the legal heirs of your grandfather and your father (i.e your sister) stating therein that they have no objection if the property is mutated to your name on the strength of their NOC and the Will

if the legal heirs of grandfather are not traceable then you can issue a public notice in local newspapers inviting objections against the proposed transfer to your name

3. Obtain NOC of your sister too;

4. You will need to discuss the family tree, the shares to each one;

5. Consult a local lawyer, show him/her documents and then take legal steps;

If the property has been bequeathed on three brothers' names, then it should be your father and his two more brothers.

Therefore your father cannot become an absolute owner to the entire proeprty.

Your father's share of property can devolve on all his own legal heirs.

His share of property, if you and your siblings want to transfer to your mother's name, can jointly execute a registered release deed relinquishing the rights in it.

Before that you have to identify your father's share ion the property, for that you have to arrange for a partition among the shareholders.

The mutually agreed partition deed to be drawn in writing and get it registered.

Once the partition is made then you people can get the proeprty records mutated to your names by submitting an application to the revenue department along with the NOC executed by your unwilling sister.

After such transfer you can transfer other records like water tax, electricity etc.

1. The property still stands in your deceased grandfather's name who has died after executing a will.

2. Grant of probate shall have to be obtained first from the Court which will make the said will legally valid.

3. Without the grant of probate, a will has no value more than a scrap paper.

4. After obtaining probate of the will, all the legal heirs of your deceased father can file a partition suit claiming partition of your deceased father';s share of your deceased grandfather's properties dividing it even in your individual names by metes and bounds.

5. Once the shares of the property is divided by metes and bounds in your individual names, you can mutate your names with the local Municipal Corporation and also BLRO.
