Dharmaraj (Querist) 30 May 2013 This query is : Resolved
Dear Sir, My wife is no my FIL's own child, she was born out of wedlock that my MIL was in before marrying my FIL.
My FIL has recently disowned my BIL, there is a property around 60-70L, the mutation and the agreement to sell and the house tax are in the name of my FIL, however the POA is in my MIL's name.
1.Can my MIL or FIL sell the property without the knowledge of each other.
2. Is my wife legally entitled for any share from the money they get from the sale.

your wife is not entitled to any share of sale proceeds of property sold by your in laws . if property is standing in name of FIL he can sell the property if eh so desires . he does not need your MIL approval

agree with Sethi.

As an owner your FIL can sell the property. If POA to sell the property is given to the MIL, then she can also sell it. Your wife can only have a share in her mother's property and have no share in your FIL's property unless he himself choose to give her something.

Your mother is entitled to inherit ancestral property but not in self acquired property if the same is sold now.
