sister want their share

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 05 April 2011 This query is : Resolved
dear sir,

we are a family of four brothers and three sister.

my father expired in the yr 1983, the probate of the will was obtained in 1986, and in the year 1999 the house where we currently live was transferred from my fathers huf to his four sons and my mother, this was done because in the will my father had written that his daughters dont have CLAIM INTREST AND SHARE in his estates in the property(also he had mentioned in the will that he would like to give his 1/6th share in the property to four of his sons). also we had orally partitioned in the year 1999 (we have no papers supporting the same) our house and place where each member would stay though there are no walls supporting the same

now my sisters are threatening to claim their right in the said property because of the amendment in the year 2005, can they do it ?

kindly help as we dont not want them to claim their right

thank you

yes. they can claim their share, as per the Hindu succession act, 2005, in the absence of the material evidence as u specified subject to the condition that the property is ancestral or self acquired.
