I’m a 72-year-old man who put some property in my two sons’ names. Sadly, my older son passed away recently. He didn’t have children, but his wife is still alive. Can I get the property back without giving it to her? I have the original documents. Is there any way I can transfer the property to my other son in the future?

Under Indian law, you may be able to get the property back, as you gifted it to your sons. Your deceased son’s wife would likely have a claim on the property, but you can explore options like a family settlement or legal action to transfer it back to your remaining son.

My father had three brothers – an elder brother and two younger brothers. He and his elder brother started a business together, but the partnership agreement included all four brothers.

Previous Article My dream home in Sathyanagar, Boisar, Maharashtra, was promised in 2009, but the builder delayed possession. I placed my faith in the law and approached a lawyer, hoping the consumer court would understand my frustration. I sought a compensation of ₹10 lakhs, plus legal fees and immediate possession. However, the State Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission in Mumbai advised me to file my claim with the District Forum, citing the value of my claim being below ₹20 lakhs. While the row house now costs around ₹13 lakhs, my emotional investment in this dream home is priceless. I’m disappointed to have to file for just ₹3 lakhs, when I deserve the full ₹10 lakhs. Can you advise me on how to file for the full compensation and ensure justice is served? I’m seeking a solution that puts my rights as a consumer first, not the builder’s.
