Coparcenary property

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 13 January 2012 This query is : Resolved 
Regarding our ancestral property, it was devolved in 1955 under coparcenary within 4 sons, each one having 1/4th share. One of the sons sold his share to the other 3 coparcenaries and after that he died.

Subsequently after few years one more son expired intestate without any children. One more son expired after few years who also did not have any children.

Please can you confirm if the last surving son has now full ownership of the entire property. After his death, does his sons become full owners of the property.

absolutely you are right..

3 out of 4 share holders are already died.. so remaining 1 person is the absolute owner now.. after his life time his legal heirs will get equal share..

Dear Mr.Tom,
I do not think you have enough details to come to such a conclusion.

In continuation to the opinion of Ramachandran, I suggest the author to put more details about the legal heirs of the deceased brothers especially who had not sold their shares and died intestate so that accurate reply may be given.

shankaran! If you dont mind, I want to suggest you to please either express own vies or tel with whom views, you do agree as it is not sufficient to write "I agree with experts' wherein divers ant views are already prevalent.

Yes! The query lacks details to form any opinion.The sole coparcener alive can be sole owner only when two predeceased coparcener have not left behind any legal heir except the alive coparcener as brother
because if they left behind them any widow/mother or father then surviving coparcener has no right of inheritance at all,even presence of a sister may change the situation.

HENCE COME WITH DESIRED FACTS.

Let me clarify the correct position. As mentioned earlier,One of the brother has already sold his share to his 3 brothers.

Out of the remaining 3 brothers, 2 of them have no children and remaining one is having 3 children.At present,the wives of 2 brothers(out of 3)are alive.The brothers had 4 sisters who were not coparceners. Out of 4 sisters, 2 have died and 2 are alive.

We have no idea if any of the 3 brothers had made any will.

Please advise how the property will be devolved as per law.

It would also depend upon on which date succession opened.

The wives of the coparceners would have the right to be maintained out of that property, so would be any widowed sisters.

Upon the existing legal heirs including the child in womb on the date of opening of succession.
