Get legal heir certificate from the revenue authorities, name transfaer with local body.You need not go in for registration as the property devolves on you.

All legal heirs of your father may execute registered release deed / gift deed / sale deed in your favor.

Show all documents to local lawyer and discuss in detail.

Yes, get legal heir certificate of your father and if other legal heirs of your father execute registered relinquish deed in favour of you then you will be absolute owner of property.

You stated in the query that "my grandfather was living 40 years back and had 4 sons and one daughter. But your grandfather had 4 sons including your father or excluding? With your father, your grandfather had 5 sons and one daughter? And also stated that my part land and house electric connection. Is the house in whose name? Your query is not at all clear. Anyhow, your father had an equal right over the property with other legal of your grandfather. So for your father's share, your father legal heirs have an equal share over his share of property.

Admittedly, there had been a division of property among the father and his siblings. Though, may be, unregistered, the partition is valid and binding.

Consequent to the death of your father, the property is jointly vested with all the legal heirs. All the legal heirs can join together and execute a settlement or partition deed. Based on the said deed mutation could be carried out on revenue /municipal records.
