Can a joint GPA given to one Agent be revoked by one principal alone?
In my case Mother and Sister has given GPA to Son…..After 15 years Only Mother has revoked the GPA ( Registered Revocation)…… is this a valid revocation ?
As no notice issued to Son ( Only oral revocation as said in revocation ) and Sister is completely not aware about the said revocation

Quick Summary

This discussion explores whether a joint Power of Attorney (GPA) granted to one agent can be revoked by a single principal. It clarifies that while one principal can indeed revoke their portion of the GPA, this must be done through a formal, registered revocation deed, not just an oral statement. A legal notice should be issued to the agent, and if the original GPA was registered, a cancellation deed involving all parties might be necessary to fully nullify the original agreement.

perusal of documents is needed before forming a concert view.

The two Principals shall execute a revocation of GPA.

If one of the principals/executant is not willing to continue the power given to the agent, he or she can very well cancel or revoke the power of attorney deed given on her/his behalf.
In such a situation a legal notice is to be given and not by an oral communication.
If it was a registered POA deed, then the principal along with the power agent has to execute a cancellation deed so that the encumbrance over the property would be nullified.
If the other principal wants to continue, then he or she can execute a fresh deed because once the previous deed stands cancelled if one of the principals cancels or revokes the power of attorney deed, then the POA deed becomes redundant or infrucutuous.

Yes, one among the principals can revoke the PoA.
