• Difference between Settlement Aadharam and Dhana Nischayam

Hello,

I am from Kerala.  Recently my father has written our ancestral house in my name. In the document it is specified as "Dhana Nischayam".

My father got this property from his mother.  The document which writes the property to my fathers name specifies it as "Settlement Aadharam".  

The vendor who wrote the document was mentioning that both "Settlement Aadharam" and "Dhana Nischayam" are both same.  Can you please let me know if there is any difference between the two..

Regards,
Savio

1. "Settlement Aadharam" is the document by which your father's ownership in the said property has been established,

2. "Dhana Nischayam" is the Gift Deed conveying the property in your favour.
