My grandfather received a property from his father in 1964, documented on a simple agreement with signatures but not officially registered. This property includes a shop and four flats. We bought one flat in my mother’s name. My grandfather has five children, and two of his sons were gifted flats. One uncle received another property he earned himself. The shop was verbally promised to me four years ago, but now my grandfather plans to sell it. We have no other income, and there are seven grandsons in our family. What legal grounds do I or my father have to file a case against my grandfather to prevent the sale of the shop and obtain a court order to stop it?

You may have legal grounds to challenge the sale based on a claim of implied or constructive trust, citing the verbal promise of the shop and your family’s dependence on its income. However, the lack of formal documentation and the absence of a registered transfer in your favor weakens your case. You should consult a lawyer to assess your specific situation and potential legal remedies.
