My father had bought a pagdi flat in Mumbai in 1984. After he passed away my mother and we siblings were residing there, and my mother was paying the rent to the landlady through her cheques. Since 2008 we have been living with a relative without paying any rent. We visit that house occasionally but it is largely vacant. We go there for a day or two sometimes have stayed there for months too. The landlady stopped taking rent from us but we paid other building maintenance charges. Now she has filed a possession lawsuit against us. We don't have any other residential property and all are documents are of that address too. We have electric connection and all bank correspondences of that address. What are our chances in such a scenario. If we go and start living there will it help?? Also she has made allegations that we have made changes to the house, left it in desrepair, etc which are all untrue. The house is nicely painted and has our furniture and things too. We had a meeting with her about selling the house, and would pay her her 1/3 share. To which she had agreed. But now in that suit she has asked the court to refrain us from selling the property as we may have ulterior motives!! She has been taking possession of several flats in the building by paying the tenants lower price than what is due or bullying them all together. She wants to have us evicted. Please advice

Hi,
I hold a room in a pagdi system chawl since 3 and 1/2 years. Since last 6 months I have rented it to a friend who is a CA and he is using it for practicing his profession. There are 5 rooms including mine, out of which, 4 are being used as commercial.
Now, the landlord says that everyone needs to vacant the room from commercial usage, or else the BMC swill seal the rooms.
He has been saying this since last 6 months but no action yet. But now, he has brought some bmc papers (assesment report) and says that we have to pay some penalty. However, when I checked the papers, they seem to be a notice of tax payment pending from his side towards BMC (we have been paying the rent on time to the landlord). The landlord also says that they will come for isnpection on 10th sept and if the room is still in commercial use, they will seal the room.
I want to know just 2 things:
1. Can BMC officials seal the room in this case?
2. Should we pay the penalty amount he is demanding?
Please help

Dear Sir,
From 2005 - 2015, I was an NRI holding Indian passport but residing abroad.
From 2015 I became foreign national then converted to OCI (overseas citizen of India)
My question is: I bought properties in India from 2005 - 2014, in my fathers name as I can't visit India every time for property registration. All the money transfer went from Indian resident account to my fathers account by INR transfer. Also we bought both agri and commercial lands. Now my father wants to transfer all the properties to me. But I understood only by inheritance I can acquire agri land after becoming OCI. Could you clarify what type of transfer my father need to execute to transfer the properties to me?
Thanks & Regards

Sir my metarnal grandfather did not made any will and out of my grand parents 8 children one has taken control on that property. Original share certificates are in our possession and all the 7-children (my maama and massi) are together and against him. U approached an attorney and he advised to go for claiming one share. He says if court gives an order in favour of our share than automatically everyone will get it. And that way we can save on court fees also. My other mama and massi are in USA and property is Andheri, Mumbai. Can you please advice if my attorney is correct or there needs a correction.
Regards

Whether purchase of property is mandatory before retirement for a State government employee (non-military) to file a suit under section 9 of the new act after retirement to evict a tenant.
