No doubt that Seller's Sisters also Legal Heirs to the concerned Property.

In the document it would have been mentioned whether it was self earned or ancestral.

Whether it is Self Acquired or Ancestral there could be No Doubt that Sisters of the Seller is also Legal Heirs of the concerned property.. Better Show all the documents and encumbrance certificates to an Local Advocate and Seek the Legal Opinion.

Here as per the Query the Seller and his mother had sold the Father's and Husband's Property with out the Consent of the Sisters/ Daughters
Advocate Bhartesh goyal (Expert) 04 December 2020
Questioned property belonged to seller's father or their ancestor,in both the situation seller's sisters had share and right over the property.seller ( son & mother ) alone had not right to sold the questioned property.Sisters claim is perfectly valid and genuine.

The property was purchased more than 30 years ago, you are enjoying the property after purchase.

Legally said sister was having share in the property.

However, if she has approached law, no alternate is left but to oppose her claim in the court.

Let your Advocate find whether any defense can help you or not.

Then,As per law Sisters of the seller can Claim their portion.So,If they claim it can I file a case against seller for compensation.

Discuss in detail with local Advocate, show him all related documents.
