I am a kerala catholic aged 50 yrs.My paternal great grandfather had acquired a lot of property by doing business .He had willed this property to his children.After his death the property was partitioned according to the will .My grandfather who was his son ,willed his share of the property to his sons equally .My father who is one of the sons of my grandfather chose to sell his share of the property .Is it legally right in the above context [Kerala Catholic ]for my father to sell his property without the permission of my brother who is his son ?Is the said property ancestral property ?

no it is not ancestral, after execution of wills of your grant father, his sons became absolute owner of their share and their shares became their self acquired property, now your father has a right to alienate his property as he wish, your brother can not object him.
