1. Only you and your mother as legal heirs of your father are answerable to the legal notice if property is self acquired property of your father
2. And if it is ancestral property or undivided property of your grandfather then your uncle will also reply to legal notice as party.
Your uncle also has to reply to notice as it is undivided joint family property
engage a lawyer and file reply to notice
if property is standing in father name then on his demise your mother , you and your siblings are legal heirs
It is necessary to peruse notice received by you from endowment t department to advice
1. There is no need to involve Uncle, since Mother & you are the legal heir of deceased father. Also there is need to surrender the property and neither the dept., has any right to claim anything from you.
2. Depute a property lawyer and ask him to scrutinize the Notice and prepare reply. Also arrange for the property to be mutated in your name, by filing civil court suit and seek directions to the Tahsildar. Let the matter be in dispute and ultimately the property would be transferred in your name.
1. See since it is hindu joint family uncle along you have to reply the notice.
2. See you all should jointly file reply to same.
See for same what is content of.the notice and demand have to be perused.
Endowment Definition: The devotion of property to a specific and particular trust. Related Terms: Bequeath or Bequests, Legacy, Charity. The transfer of money or property (usually as a gift) to a public or charitable organization for a specific purpose, such as medical research, parks or scholarships.
Are you sure that this property belongs to your family and has been declared as HUF property.
If so, then you may have to give a reply to the notice denying the allegations made in the notice by the concerned department and produce documentary evidences to support your claim.
If your uncle received a similar notice, let him give a reply, you concentrate on your case alone.
The notice, if issued on your father's name, since you and your mother and your siblings are the legal heirs, one of you representing all the legal heirs of your deceased father can give a reply notice either by yourself or through a lawyer and pursue the matter if it is escalated through any legal forum or court, by the department concerned.
First of all you give a reply notice through a lawyer, by producing the notice before the concerned lawyer, and on his advice you may follow up the further action.
Please contact local advocate for more precise guidance. This is not such easy to respond without knowing the facts.
you should obviously hire a lawyer to defend your case and reply the notice.
Only you and mother are owners by inheritance. What is the need to surrender ? what`s in the noitce ?
