Quick Summary

Following the Hindu Succession Act amendment in 2005, daughters are now coparceners with equal rights to sons in a Hindu Undivided Family (HUF) property. This means a daughter can indeed become the Karta (manager) of the HUF after the passing of her parents, even if there are other male coparceners, with the consent of other major coparceners. Recent court rulings have affirmed a woman's right to manage HUF property as Karta.

A Coparcener can become Karta of a Hindu Undivided Family. By Virtue of Hindu Succession Act (Amended ) 2005 Daughters also become coparcener and would have interest by birth in coparcener property similar to sons.Daughters of HUF are governed by Mitakshara Law and become coparceners. You could continue with your father's HUF and become Karta. of the HUF.

Expert Dr. J.C. Vashishta ji, thanks for agreeing.

When Karta of the HUF dies, the next senior male member takes over as Karta. If the senior most member gives up his right, a junior coparcener can become Karta of the HUF, with the consent of all other major co-parceners as held by Supreme Court in Narendra Kumar J. Modi Vs CIT (1976) 105 ITR 109 (SC).

After the 2005 amendment to Hindu Succession Act, 1956, Delhi High Court in the case Mrs. Sujata Sharma v Shri Manu Gupta has held that while females have equal rights to HUF property (post HSA), they also have the right to manage the same property as Karta. Also, the court found no restrictions regarding a female Karta in Section 6, HSA.
