This query is : Resolved
My grandfather died in the year 2011, and left with 5 sons and 4 daughters. He also left with properties with his name and my grandmother’s name. Before he died, he did not prepare any will and grandmother still alive. After 3 years, my father expired (eldest son) and my mother is still alive. Now, the remaining 4 sons of my grandfather are separating, so they are asking my mother’s signature. Our family (my father, mother and two of my youngest brother and me) came out our grandfather family 20 year’s back. We have not separated from our grandfather family; however my father did an exchange deed, gave some property in his name in exchange of a house in the name of my grandfather to live. We are hearing that 4 of my uncles (my father’s brothers) they did a will with my Grandmother. Can I know how much property we (my mother or grandson) can claim the property. Can we get the full 1 share of the value of the property that is under my grandfather’s name? Can we also (either my mother or grandson) claim our grandmother’s property?

i think your father will get 1/9th part of the property and in his absense if you are adult then you will get it else your mother will get.
grandma's property , i don't think you can claim.

Author, with whom your father did an exchange deed? for exchange deed, both parties shall have properties. then only exchange deed question arises. otherwise that is a sale.there is no clarity in your query.

My father did an exchange deed with my grandfather, when my father left the house. it is not a separation, only an exchange of properties among my grandfather and my father. There was a land in my fathers name, that got exchanged with my Grandfather. My grandfather on behalf of the land, gave a residential house so that we can stay there.

The answer depends upon the significance of the Exchange Deed.

All relative documents need to be referred, consult local lawyer.
