Quick Summary

A son is questioning the legality of his mother selling an ancestral property inherited from his grandfather without his consent. While one opinion suggests the sale is illegal as ancestral property devolves on legal heirs, another argues that if the mother received the property from her father, she likely owns it outright and can sell it as she wishes. The key to determining its ancestral status lies in how it was acquired and whether it has remained undivided through four generations of male lineage.

Hello,
As per my opinion, your mother is the owner of the property which she receives from her father. So your mother is competent to sell the property as per her wish and you cannot challenge this before any court.

The facts posted do not suggest the property to be ancestral.

How the property is ancestral?
How it came to your mother?
Who firstly purchased it and whether it remained undivided from last 4 generations?

Property inherited up to four generations of male lineage and should have remained undivided throughout this period is ancestral property.
