Quick Summary

This discussion concerns the partition of an undivided 1.58-acre property purchased in 1973 by a grandfather and his three sons. Although there was an informal family understanding to divide the land equally, government records and individual deeds reflect different proportional shares. The original purchasers have since passed away, and the current generation is seeking to legally formalise their respective portions, particularly one individual whose share falls within Survey No. 206/9a. Two parties have already acted on the informal partition through deeds, establishing a precedent for formalising the division.

Since your family had an informal "understanding" that divided the physical land into four equal strips (across the combined 1.58 acres), but the revenue records or individual deeds defaulted to proportional shares in both survey numbers ($1.58 \text{ acres} \div 4 = 0.395 \text{ acres} \approx 39.5 \text{ cents}$ per party), your physical possession in Survey No. 206/9a needs to be legally formalized.
Since two of the other co-owners have already executed deeds reflecting the family partition (one specified boundaries, another transferred/sold their specific portion in 206/8a), there is an established course of conduct showing the oral partition was acted upon.

Your grandfather and his 3 sons orally divided the property but equally or un-equally not known. However, one party made sale deed to his wife for the entire extent. how is it possible as each one got Ac.0.39.5 cents only. Did you obtain a copy of revenue record?

You can file a suit for partition, possession and mesne profits through a local prudent lawyer, if you are not satisfied with family arrangement / partition.
