Undivided share in the joint property can be sold even if the other co sharers are not ready for it.

There is no legal restraint to sell undivided share.

However the prospective buyer is to be ready for this.

Although nobody can predict the exact time frame but the least it may take is a year. Civil suits take time to be decided in the courts, albeit the delay can be remedied by seeking appropriate orders from the High Court.
