- As per law, as your father died without leaving any WILL, hence the property left by him would be devolved upon your mother, and other member of family i.e. legal heirs of your father
- Further, As per Co-operative Societies Act, A member can nominate a person or persons to whom his share and interest in the co-operative society will be transferred by the society in the event of his death.
- Further, A member would cease to be a member of a society on death. However, his holding and other interests do not lapse, but they pass on to his heirs or legal representatives.
- Further, the society is bound to transfer the share or interest of the deceased member to a person/s nominated, and if no such person is nominated then the committee of the society shall transfer it to such person as may appear to the committee to be the heir or legal representative of the deceased member.
- Hence, it is not possible to transfer the flat in your mothers name in the absence of consent from other legal heirs, including you.
- If society has done this , then it is against the law, and you can lodge a complaint against the society , and send a legal notice in the office of the society , for explaining the ground of transfer the flat in the name of mother without getting legal heir certificate , which is required legally.
