This query is : Resolved
My father expired last month. He left his own purchased house(self acquired) and his ancestoral agricultural land (both are in different tehsils talukas in Punjab ) . My mother, sister and myself are the heirs of that property. My father did not make the will. My mother and sister have no objections in transfering property in favor of me. My queries regarding the above scenario are:
1.What is procedure for transfer in such cases?
2. Is there any time limit for the above process after the death of owner.?
3. Since the he house and the agricultural land are in the different tehsils do the same process have to be repeated for both.
4. Does the above scenario involves very heavy stamp duty?

Obtain death certificate and legal heir certificate (anyone of the legal heirs can get it from Suvidha center) and submit to concerned Patwari(ies) for entry in mutation records (virarsat ka Intkaal) and obtain Fard showing the enteries.
Thereafter the mother and sister can relinquish their rights by registered relinquishment deed.
The fee is nominal/almost negligible.
You can inquire from SRO.
