If your mother-in-law passed away without a will or nominee, her property will be divided equally among her legal heirs, including her children and grandchildren. If she named a nominee, the property will pass on to the nominee, and you would have to prove that you are legal heirs to claim your share through a legal process.

Can I rent out the property while we await a resolution?

What are our rights and responsibilities now? Will the unauthorized portion of the building be demolished? How can we obtain the original property documents?

Could you tell me if there’s any chance the original joint family, including any children, could challenge this sale later on? If so, how can I ensure this doesn’t happen?
