Hi,

The best method is to do mutual settlement and with an agreement to restrain every one of no interference. If mutual settlement not possible, go for suit of declaration, division and permanent injunction.

There must be movable and immovable property left. All the siblings will have an equal share. Therefore divide the immovable property as per either a family arrangement or file a partition suit.

As far as cash is concerned divide the cash and sign an affidavit that the cash has been distributed and has been divided equally. The affidavit has to be signed by all in front of 2 witnesses and registrar.

1) First of all, your all siblings and your name should appear on mutation papers.

 

2) To save stamp duty you have to make relinquish deed and pay sum consideration to all sisters and take their all rights transfer on your name.

 

3) If you want I can prepare relinquish deed for you at reasonable rates.

Dear sir,

In order to avoid any possible opposition and unpleasant situation, please wait for selling the property. First get the relinquish deed made and then proceed hassle free. The relinquish deed requires mentioning of all the properties description, the rights of persons and relinquishing of rights by someone. It should be duly stamped and registered with registrar office.

If your sisters execute relinquishment deed then you can sell it without presence of your sisters. 

Once the deed is prepared on a stamp paper, it is submitted before sub-registrar of assurances within whose jurisdiction the property is situated for registration along with a registration fee which varies from state to state.

A relinquishment deed is required from those persons who are heirs and do not wish to have a share in the property. A relinquishment deed is to be signed by such persons separately before the sub registrar and 2 witnesses are required for each deed. If the deed is obtained they are not required to be present.it is made in the registrar office and you should engage a lawyer for this.

  1. As per the information mentioned in the present query, makes it clear that you want to settle the matter with your sister after giving some lim sum amount to them in lieu of their shares.
  2. Yes, they all will have to execute a single relinquishment deed (if they all want to save some money, otherwise they can go for separate deed also) wherein they would say/ release their share to you for the amount.
  3. Once you get the release deed then you will have to approach the civil court of law of your district for getting the successsion certificate along with the copy of the release deed. So, that sisters would not be asked to give the NOC.
  4. Thereafter, at the time of selling the property, they need not to be there before the registrar’s office.

1. In relinqushment deed, no question of claiming any amount can be made The ideal should be3 settlement deed where tyhe terms of the settlement can be dewtailed. After the property is settled in your favour, you can sell the same and at that time thre will be no need of your sisters presence.

 

2. Your sisters shall have to registeer the relinquishment deed before the Registrar. In case of settlement deed, all of you shall have to register it before the Registrar.

Without relinquishment deed you cannot sell the property independently.

You can approach a deed writer in the local who will guide you properly.
