Adding our name in ancestral property
Dear Sir, We have a house constructed on ancestral land which was allocated to my father verbally in 1997. As its still practice in rural area to abide the decisions made verbal, no one has yet claimed on the land as everyone knows its allocated to our name. While, I searched for 7/12 extract if the same, I found that the title is on the name of my father's cousin, Lets name A (My grandfather & Father of Mr. A were brothers from same mother & father) I suspect that After demise of my great grandfather, Mr. A's father didn't enter my grandfather's name is Waras Tapas & My grandfather never realized it as he was uneducated as well as was working in Mumbai that time. Today, we don't have single piece of land on our name whereas Mr. A has lots of land in same village despite of being financially incapable to purchase so much land. Thats why I suspect its an ancestral land. My Questions : 1) How can verify the history of land of details of ferfar on 7/12. 2) Can Title search report give me exact details of transaction on land? 3) What are my legal options to claim the land? 4) I do have a certified hierarchy certificate as well as PAN card copy of my father which indicates full name of my grandfather. 5) The property is in Konkan & We stay in Mumbai. So can we file suit in Mumbai?? Best Regards,

You can get the details from the land revenue department by approaching the concerned land revenue officer within the jurisdiction where the property is situated.
If you are able to get the rgistered title deeds then you can apply for title search, if there are no registration or encumbrance then there is no use of filing title search application also.
If you firmly believe that this is ancestral property then you can very well file a suit for partition.
The identity card or details do not have any relevance to the property issues.
You may have to file the suit only in the place where the property is situated
- No land can be without a owner in revenue record. You can search the history of land in revenue record, you will know the original owner of land.
- If the land is in the name of any of your ancestor, you can claim the land as legal heir.
- You can get share in all properties which are in the name of cousins/uncles/grand uncles etc. All properties inherited by them or purchased from the sale of ancestral property of from the funds generated from ancestral property is joint family property. File a suit for partition and separate possession of all properties, it will take time but you will get your share.
- Civil suit can be filed only in the court of the district in properties are situated or at least one of the properties is situated.
1. You can do title search for the same
2. Yes title search with encrumbrance certificate
3. You can claim it thorough suit or appropriate legal remedy
4. No suit will be filed at konkan
1. You can enquire from the office of registrar/Revenue land officer for knowing the details of property in your grandfathers name , and further apply for getting certified copy of the same.
2. Yes.
3. You can send a legal notice to petition of the property , being the legal heirs of father.
4. It can be used for getting the share of your father
5. Konkan
To verify the history of the land and details of ferfar on 7/12 extract, you can approach the concerned Tehsildar or Revenue Department of the area where the land is located. They will have the official records and can provide you with the necessary information.
Yes, a Title search report can give you the exact details of transactions on the land. It will show the complete chain of ownership of the land and any transfers or mortgages that may have taken place.
Your legal options to claim the land will depend on various factors such as the length of time that has passed since the land was transferred to Mr. A's name, the evidence you have to support your claim, and the laws of the state where the land is located. You may need to consult a local lawyer who specializes in property law to understand your options and how to proceed.
The certified hierarchy certificate and PAN card copy of your father that indicate the full name of your grandfather can be used as evidence to support your claim. You may also need to gather additional evidence such as witness testimony or other documents to strengthen your case.
You may need to file a suit in the court that has jurisdiction over the area where the land is located. If the property is in Konkan and you reside in Mumbai, you may need to file a suit in a court that has jurisdiction over Konkan or where the cause of action arose. Your lawyer can advise you on the appropriate court to file the suit in.
