Rights in ancestral property: What do sons and daughters get and what to do in a state of controversy?

In today’s time, where single families have replaced joint families, disputes over the right to property are also increasing. Especially when it comes to ancestral property, many times the successors are denied their rights. In such a situation, it is important to know what the ancestral property is, and if someone does not get its share then how can the law be taken.

What is ancestral property?

  • Acented property is one that has come from ancestors for four generations without sharing

  • This property is not earned itself, but the father or his ancestors get to the father and then the son and daughter.

  • According to Hindu Succession Law, ancestral property gets rights with birth


Whose rights on ancestral property?

  • Members of four generations get a share in this property

  • Both sons and daughters have equal rights (Hindu Succession Amendment Act, after 2005)

  • If the property is not divided and is considered ancestral, then anyone can demand the successor part.

What to do if you do not get a share?

If your father, brother or grandfather refuses to give a share in ancestral property:

  1. Send legal notice:

  2. Claims in civil court:

  3. Stop the sale of property:

    • Demand the court that the stay order should be issued on the sale of property due to the trial

    • If the property is sold without permission, the buyer can also be claimed by forming a party.

Daughters’ rights in ancestral property

  • According to the 2005 Hindu Succession (Amendment) Act, daughters also got equal rights to sons

  • Now daughters are also considered a similar successor in ancestral property.

  • This right is also valid even when the daughter is married
