Under Indian law, the agreement is not automatically invalidated. The property will be considered part of the deceased person’s estate. The legal heirs will inherit the property according to the laws of succession, subject to any will or testamentary disposition made by the deceased.

My father gifted his property (bought in 1976) to my grandmother (my mother’s mother) in 1987. Then, my grandmother gave my mother the authority to sell the property in 2000. My mother is the sole inheritor and we’ve always paid taxes, bills, and maintained the property, even collecting rent. Now, my mother wishes to sell it. What’s the quickest and most straightforward way to proceed? Some suggest getting a new legal heirship certificate (ration card is unavailable), while others advise mutation, probate of will, or legal administration. I’m confused. We have a potential buyer who needs documents for legal verification.

Is it even possible to buy land in our father’s name if my brother’s the one taking the loan?
