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.

Yes, your understanding is correct. As your grandfather didn’t leave a will, the property will be divided equally among his surviving children, including your mother representing your father’s share. To sell the flat, you’ll need to obtain a No Objection Certificate (NOC) from the DDA and get the consent of all legal heirs. You’ll need to appoint a power of attorney for the relatives living outside Delhi to facilitate the sale process.
