You stated in your query 'my husband got a notice from his elder sister" and in the middle, " my husband living in his father house with me and son and daughter-in-law" and also stated "now sister demanding 12 lakhs, and I offered 4.5 lakh as she is my sister and the family should not go to court" Is not confusing? Where is clarity in your query?

Your husband should reply the notice given by his sister through a local prudent lawyer, clarifying his position vis-a-vis property/ documents involved and wait for further proceeding.

Yes, your husband has the option to reply to the Notice. But it is not mandatory and purely at his discretion.
