This query is : Resolved
Dear members,
we have ancestrsal prpoerty which inherited for my forefathers (i.e from my fathers' Grandfather). My grand father has 2 sons and 4 daughters.
My queries:
1).My grand father made a will on the name of his two sons and his younger daughter(at the time Unmarried). Is the will made by him is valid?.
2). He made a gift registration of some property on the name of his 3rd daughter without any the consent of his rest of the Children(All are major). Is it valid?.
HENCE i AM REQUESTING YOU TO PROVIDE ME YOUR VALUABLE SUGGESTIONS ON THE SAME.

Will is operative only after the death of the testator ... if he is still alive then will is inoperative

yes ... the will made by him valid but only to the extent of his share ,after deducting the property which he had bequeathed through Gift as his share, in the property he had bequeathed through such will

example
Total property = 10 apple
your grand fathers share = 3 apple
then if he bequeath through
Gift - 1 apple &
will - 9 apple then
Gift of 1 apple is valid and
will of only 2 apple is valid

But wat abt the will he made in that case.
once the will has been made by my grandfather, are his daughters eligible to ask equal share in the remaining prpoerty.

a person can dispose of only his share in the ancestral property and not the share of the other coparceners

Hi ashey,
Let me explain you clearly, as i told you my grand father has 6 children(2 Sons+4 daughters).
two daughters got married in 80s itself.
(for this reason he sold some property ancestral).
for 3rd daughter marriage he sold some property and given some property as gift.
for the rest 3 has given a will saying equal share in the remaining.
That will has been implemented at MRO and after that we went for arbitrary and compromised to give the calculated value equal to her share, she accepted (Signed) the same and after wards she breached that.
Now she is asking for equal share in the property.
kindly let me know her eligibility and guide me to proceed further.
shall we have the rights to cancel gift deed made for his 3rd daughter.

The will and gift made by the grand father is valid to the extent of his share only. grandfather cannot make will for entire ancestral property.

I agree with my lrd friedns and futher add that;-
in Ap till 1984 the male members are only coparcenrs- by Ap amendment the un married duathers are also included in the Coparcenary Definition , and by amendment 2005 it is futher included, all the daughters whether married or un married, in the Copacenry definition for partition of the properties which are remained joint( Not partitioned ) if the properties are already partitioned and ther is no property to be divided there is no entitlement to the daughters to calim any partition !
The Gifts reasonably made by the Kartha of the Family will be bindign on the Family memebrs
The sale for family necessities like Marriages will also bind the family memebrs ,
The Compromise is implimented before the MRo , it is Revenue Court for partitions and mutations and Land rights up datign by adjudication under the Pattedars Pass Books Act -any order passed under the this Act will be binding on the parties to the compromise , any previous settledPartition - Compromise - issue can not be re-opened under the guise of Amendment to Hindu law - provided the transactions took place before 2005 Amendment Act
In my view she has to accpet the previous transactions and further not entitled to
The Gifts and Will Deed appears to be already adjusted - a transaction has already taken place on the properties before the date of 2005 amendment it is binding !
with regard !
