ancestral property inheritance

I am from Hindu family.

My mother and my mother’s sister are only two child of my maternal grandfather (my mother's father). My maternal grandfather (my mother's father) have ancestral property which he is in process of selling to third party without informing my mother and we assume the price money can been transferred to my mother’s sister.

Can my mother claim right on the property or money that my maternal grandfather (my mother's father) gets in the process of selling the property.

Can we stop this sale and ask for 50% of the stake in property or the money received in the process of sale.

We are apprehensive that my mother’s sister can influence my maternal grandfather (my mother's father) to will all his property or money generated in the sale of ancestral property in her name alone.

Issue of power of attorney

Dear All

I need clarification on following points with regard to issue of power of attorney:

1. Can one person issue a single power of attorney in favour of two or more persons with respect to the same property so that in case of non availability of one of the attorney holders, the other holder can do the transaction OR is the giving of power in favour of one or more persons for the same property invalid?

2. Also if a person is giving a power of attorney to his brother/s, then what is the amount of stamp duty payable for the said purpose?

3. If the power is given for dealing with two or more properties and other business aspects also, then how much stamp duty would be payable?

interpretaion of statement in the will

My father has stated in his will , "After having allotted properties individually as above ( in this will) which each individual will get after my life time, if there are properties left out in this will and the properties that I would acquire in my life time will belong equally among the five sons of my second wife"

Really, my father purchased a house with vacant land, in his name.

Now there being litigation about the left out properties among the brothers,the matter is now in the court.

My brothers" lawer interprets in the statement of my brother that since the property is not mentioned in the will( incidently it cannot be shown in the will, being purchased after writing the will} the property is indestate property.

Waiting for learned lawers guidance in this regard. Is the property intestate or testamentary.

hindu sucession amendment act 2005

The Supreme Court of India in Sheela Devi and Others vs Lalchand held that sucession opens up on the date of death of a hindu woman's father. Therefore if a hindu woman's father dies before the above act came into force, she will not get the benefit of the above amendment. Only those hindu women whose father expires after the amendment of 2005 came into force, can benefit from the said act. Am I correct ? If so, Indian women have to wait for a couple of decades to get the benefit of this amended act ?(p.s.- I am not an advocate)

Purchase of plot through Power of attoney made by proprietor

Dear Sirs,

I am interested to purchase a plot in Jaipur (Rajasthan). The plot is owned by individual say "A" ( intially alloted by Jaipur Development Authority), wants to sale it to me but by drawing a power of attorney in favour of another individual say "B". In this transaction, the whole of the proceeds will go to "A". My query is :-

1. Is sale of plot / property through power of attorney valid in courts of law?

2. Is registration of the power of attoney drawn in favour of "B" be done beforehand sale transaction and registration of sale deed.What is the general stamp duty for such registration of power of attorney?

3. "A" is willing to be witness in the sale registration to be executed by "B". Inspite of this can future dispute be raised by "A"?

4. What can be the foolproof process where it can be checked that "B" has not done similar transaction of sale through power of attorney to some other individual/s ?

5. In the eyes of Law, the sale of a property which is registered will be considered genuine where another man who also claims right of property ( but which is not registered) of having been sold the same property by keeping the person in dark.

6. Is publishing a general enquiry in the newspaper about any claimant for plot is desired at the time of purchase and legally enough to protect one's interests ?

7. What general precautions should be taken for purchase and registration of purchased plot?

The learned advocates are kindly requested to guide me with their rich knowledge.

Thank You!
