Under Indian law, you can transfer the property to your daughter, regardless of her marriage. Hindu Succession Act allows you to transfer property to any legal heir, including your daughter. Your daughter’s marriage to a Christian does not affect her inheritance rights.

My grandfather’s DDA flat in Hari Nagar, Delhi, is now vacant as he and my grandmother have passed away. He didn’t leave a will, and he had five children – two daughters and three sons. Sadly, my father, the eldest son, is also no longer with us. I believe the property now belongs to my remaining four aunts and uncles, and my mother representing my father’s share. Could you confirm if this is correct? We’re planning to sell the flat, but some of my relatives live outside Delhi. What steps should we take to proceed with the sale? I would be grateful for your prompt advice.

My friend recently bought a house in a new colony near the Chandigarh border, close to a village called Jhampur. The bank approved his loan, and around 150-200 plots have already been sold with ownership transferred. Some families have even moved in, and construction is in full swing. While the land documents seem alright, the bank is only willing to provide a loan for building the house, not for the plot itself. This land is outside the “Lal Dora” area. The landowner has created his own map and divided the land into numbered plots. Currently, only electricity is available, and each plot relies on a submersible pump for water. Although the landowner admits the colony isn’t registered, he’s committed to building roads and a drainage system for waste water, but not a sewage system.

I bought an open car parking space from a well-known builder in Greater Noida back in 2013, paying ₹1.5 lakh for it. It’s mentioned in my allotment letter. Now, the builder wants an extra ₹50,000 to convert it into a covered parking space. Is it legally possible for me to ask them for a refund or to convert the parking without extra charges?

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?
