Sister's claim on father & mother property
Dear Sir,
My Grandfather & Grand Mother acquired some land with their own money & on the compensation received against death of one of their son in a railway accident, the son was working in Indian Railways.
Out of this land some portion is held in my Grand Mother's name.
Some portion is held in my Grand Father's name, out of which in one portion, my Grand father constructed house where my father contributed money generously & regularly.
Also my father was regularly sending money for their living & during the old age both of them stayed with my father, who was taking care of them.
Now both of my Grand Father & Grand Mother died in 1984 & 1989 respectively & they are survived by one son (my father) & two daughters (my Aunt).
Both the daughters have claimed on the property held in the name of my Grand Father & Grand Mother, please confirm me whether they have any share on the property held or not, considering the following:
1. Property is not ancestral & acquired by self & by the compensation amount received by Grand father & Grand Mother.
2. Substantial amount of money was given by my father for the construction of the house, original letters of Grandfather available with my father regarding receipt of money & thanking letters.
3. The daughters (my Aunt) have also acquired property in partition from their father/mother in laws
4. both the daughters (my Aunt) are widow surviving with their son & daughters.
6. considering the Hindu succession act amendment 2005 have any role in the above scenario.
7. after marriage of the daughters (my Aunt) they stayed in their husbands home & never stayed with my Grandfather & Grandmother & also never looked upon them during their old age.
Please reply me whether both the daughters (my Aunt) along with my father have any right on the subject property, if not Ok, but if any in what proportion, on the property as follows:
1. Land.
2. Building
Thank you in advance for your earliest reply.
Warm regards,
Srikant Pani.
