This is my response to you: 1. Since its ancestral property every one will get a share in the property; 2. Therefore you will get one division and therefore there will be further sub-division of the property; 3. Your father can make a will to your name.

Firstly, the history and devolution of the property will need to be better understood to determine whether it is truly ancestral or not. If yes, then all copareceners (including you) have a share in the ancestral property. However, if it is determined that the property is self acquired property, you can get your father to make a registered will wherein you are the sole heir.

Question related to Pedhinama and legal heir for grand father property distribution

My grandfather, grandmother, and father have passed away. My mother is alive, and we are two brothers and one sister. I have one uncle who is alive and another uncle who has passed away, leaving behind one son. In addition, my grandfather has four daughters, all of whom are alive. We are in the process of preparing the Pedhinama (legal heir certificate). Could you please clarify who should be included in the Pedhinama? This concerns my grandfather’s self-acquired property, and I would also like to know how the property should be legally distributed among the heirs.

No Progress in Writ Petition Filed on 28 Feb in Calcutta High Court – Is This Normal?

How long does it usually take for a police inaction writ petition related to a land matter to be disposed of? I filed a writ on 28th February in Calcutta High Court because someone is obstructing my construction, but there still seems to be no progress. I mistakenly gave my case to a new advocate who does not have much experience. He took ₹25,000 for filing and hearing, ₹13,700 as court fee based on property valuation (no receipt given), and ₹3,000 for sending a notice. I am now confused whether I am being misled or if the court naturally takes this much time. Any guidance would be very helpful.
