You cannot remove your father's name now.
The 50% share of your father will go by way of inheritance equally amongst all his legal heirs. The legal heirs of your father are his mother (if alive), his wife (i.e. your mother) and all son(s) and daughter(s).
Unless your grand mother, mother, brother(s) and sister(s) give a Registered Relinquishment Deed, relinquishing their interest in the property in your favour, you cannot get the property in your name.
Power of Attorney will have no legal sanctity and validity. They have to give Registered Relinquishment Deed in your favour.

Dear

File a suit for Partition & make all the other members respondent in the same suit. Futhur file a compromise in the same suit & then the property can be transferred in your name.

Even if there are any other property, which requires such change of ownership, the same can be done in the same suit. Thus there is no need to execute any reqluinshment Deed seperately, mere statement of persons in the compromise deed is sufficeient to remove their share in the property as owned by your Dad.

Hope this will help you. For any furthur queries, do revert back.

Any suit as suggested by Mr. Ameet will be seen through by the Court as a 'Collusive Suit' and will get dismissed.

thanks you sir Adv R Ramachandran.
i have gone ahead taking the support of an advocate here in pune with the release dead. the only difference is that i did a gift deed instead of release dead as the release deed was 5% stamp duty and gift deed is 2 %.
thanks for your advice.
i am going ahead with the document to remove my fathers name from the share certificates.
