Difference between ancestral and self earned property.

A Bequeaths by will equal shares to X and Y jointly in a business firm.

The firm was dissolved by mutual agreement.

X became the owner of the firm having paid half the shares to y be a deed of dissolution which was not registered.

Now after an elapse of 33 years from the date of dissolution, the son of Mr.Y has sent a legal notice through a lawyer to Mr X stating that X has cheated Y to an extent of Rs 5. laks and asks X to hand over the business to y or to him. He being the grand son of A, he claims that it is ancestral property and hence he has some succession to that business. Is it legally valid notice.

Reply to legal notice.

When I receive a legal notice vexatious in nature, is it mandatory to reply to that notice.

If I do reply, should the reply be made through another lawyer or shall I myself do reply to the lawyer?

Can I send the reply directly to the person for whom the lawyer has issued notice.
Can I keep quiet and wait for the suit, since I know well that the allegations are false in nature.

Consumer Right

The builder has given possession of flats in May 2007. Till date, he has not procurred Occupation Certificate/Building Completition Certificate from the Municipal Corporation, Pune. I remember to have read in news paper that lapse on the part of the builder amounts to deficiency of service to the flat buyers within the meaning of the Consumer Protection Act. The judgment is delivered by the National Forum. Can any one give citation reference of this judgment?

Contradictions of name.

In the service book the authority inserted the name of the Govt servant as Jeorge which was in fact was George and this was continued till the death of the Govt servant. After the death of the employee the wife inserted her husband name as George for nomination in the pension book, and as a result there is an objection from the authority as the name of the employee was written as George and not as jeorge. Is this mistake a ground to reject the application of the wife for nominating her in the pension book?

Electricity Act

My client is an 80 years old man, he has got lot many properties and monies, however his health does not permit him to look after his investments.Therfore, he takes assistance from 2 girls-one as share analyst and one accountant and asks them to invest in Shares for himself only , for which he has got 3pcs at his residence. Here it can be noted that he is using his resience only for residential purpose. But my client received a notice u/s 126(1) of Electricity Act 2003, from BEST(supplier of electricity in mumbai) alleging that electricity is used for commercial purpose and therefore they issued a show cause notice stating their intention to change tariff from residential to commercial.we have replied their notice and explained them above fact that he is using his residence for residential purpose only and not commercial purpose as the investment is done solely of his investments and thereby no commercial activity is carried out.I need a suitable judgement which can support my above contention-pls guide me with the citation.Thanx,BinduAdvocateÂ
