Dear Sir
We are six sisters and one brother, last year one of no. 4 unmarried sister died and left behind self acquired house.

I think if your parents are alive then they will become legal heirs of your late sister. otherwise your sisters and brother have rights and so GPA is not valid. the brother and sisters shall execute relinquishment/release deed in favour of younger un-married sister.
