Hi Lawyer, One of my friend need help. Current Property is in her mother's name. It was transferred from his uncle as he did not have any children. Uncle got his property from his father (i.e her grandfather). Now in case her mother transfer this property to his 2 son's name. Then is it possible for daughter to claim share on her mother's property? As she is unmarried and dependent on her mother. Also one other property already in name of her brothers which was given by his grandfather without notifying her (by brothers) as his grandfather was not mentally fit. So is girl have rights to get share on his grandfather property which was now in name of his brothers few years ago. The reason for getting her share is that his brother is forcing her to leave house. Please advice. Thanks.

hi Steven, yes your friend can claim the right in ancestral property as according to the ruling law in India a daughter is also considered as coparcener A coparcener is someone who has right to inherit the property. this rule came into force after the 2005 amendment of Hindu succession act, 1956. And has been affirmed through various decisions of the supreme court of India. Indian succession act of 1925 also governs the same matters. also about forcing her to leave the house, she could file a suit for that, but before that i will suggest you to consult a family law attorney he will guide to it.
