My grand father purchased agriculture land Tamilnadu in 1941. Grand father died on 1958. Govt Revenue records show my grand mother name but Registered document has my grand father name. He has 4 daughters and 2 sons. I am Son's daughter. All my aunts are married before 1989 and died except one. Survving aunty filed civil suit on us to get 1/6 in agriculture land. My aunts has right to claim on that property ? Tamil nadu HSA 1989 law says female marreid before 1989 does not have rights. But Centre goverment HSA act 2005 says female has birth rights on father property. Which Act prevail n Tamilnadu?

Land Purchased by grand father. grand mother used to pay taxes after grand father expired. Govt records has grant mother name becuase she used to pay the taxes. Its not ancestral property. Its purshed by grand father.

Before 1956, woman did not have equal rights in any property. After 1956, all remaining legal heirs have equal rights in self-acquired and intestate property including woman. TN Act is applicable for ancestral property also for woman who married on or after March 25, 1989. If any further clarification: my cell no. 94431 45884
