You can’t legally claim any share of the profits from the sale of your brother’s rented shop. As a tenant, he has the right to sell his leasehold interest without your consent. You could attempt to negotiate a share of the profits with your brother, but legally, you have no claim.

My wife’s mother is her father’s second wife, born after his passing. He left a registered “vyawasthapatra” for 2 acres of agricultural land in her name, prohibiting sale or gifting, valid until her death. My wife is his only daughter. The land is also shared by his first wife’s three daughters, their two sons, and my wife and her mother, a total of 7 people, holding a 7/12 share (2.73 hectares). His first wife’s sons don’t seem interested in the land. My wife’s mother is 75 years old and unable to work. Could you advise who will inherit the 2 acres after her passing, considering the “vyawasthapatra” and the existing co-ownership?

My father passed away in February 2003. He strongly opposed giving any portion of his property to his daughter. So, in 1998, he let me build a house on the property at my own expense, allowing me to collect rent. After his passing, my mother claims there was no will and that she and my sister took all his savings – around 15 lakhs and some shares, the details of which are unclear. Now, they want a share in the property as well. This seems suspicious, especially since my mother never agreed to this arrangement before. I promptly got the property registered in my name, including electricity and water connections, in 2003. For the past 10 years, no one has contested this. I now wish to sell the property, but they refuse to sign, even if I offer them their rightful share. What legal steps should I take?

I purchased a property in Bangalore in January 2012 using a registered and stamped General Power of Attorney (GPA). At that time, property registrations were temporarily closed. After three months, I converted the ownership to my name through a registered and stamped Sale Deed. Is this legally valid? Additionally, I’m securing a bank loan and they require a confirmation deed from the previous owner. However, he’s refusing to sign it. Is there a legal way to compel him to sign the deed and resolve this issue?

I’m a daughter from Kurnool, Andhra Pradesh. My father registered all the property in my mother’s name when I was young. Now that I’m married and need some financial assistance, can I ask to share the property with my sister? If she refuses, what legal options do I have?

Previous Article Respected Sir, I appeared for the UGAT 2016 exam at Allahabad University to seek admission in B.Com. I qualified for admission under the SC reservation quota. However, during counselling on 07/09/2016, I was informed that my caste certificate issued in 2004 by the Tehsildar is deemed outdated. The university authorities stated they could not verify its authenticity online and requested a new certificate. The next and final counselling session is scheduled for 12/07/2016. Obtaining a new certificate in such a short time frame seems impossible.
Next Article My family is looking to buy a property from brothers whose parents have passed away. They have a legal heir certificate. The bank is reviewing the documents for a loan, and we expect their decision soon. I’m a bit concerned: 1. Can the brothers legally sell the property? 2. Is the legal heir certificate (varasnama) enough to prove their right to sell? 3. Can I rely solely on the bank’s lawyer (like SBI or PNB) for verification? 4. I’ve paid a small token amount, but they’re asking for 10% as a deposit. Should I proceed?
