Can Married Daughter Demand Partition of HUF?

yes, absolutely she has equal right in respect of HUF property, she can claim.

Dear Sir,

In HUF property, ur all sons and daughter have equal rights. there is no issue ur child is married  or unmarried.

For her rights ur daughter can go court for her partition.

Sanjeev Gupta

yes

Daughter has right and she can claim partition as the matter of right. The recent amendment in the Hindu Succession Act empowered them.

Yes, female members having equal right in property.

There was a prohibition of seeking partition by a female member, if the property was occupied by the male members of the family for dwelling purpose. And another problem was the female member prior to this was not allowed to seek partition directly. Now after the amendment of the said Act. Now the female member has got the equal right to claim and enjoy her share in the HUF

Married daughter has the equal share in the HUF property as the other male members of the family after the recent amendments.

In a case the agreement of sale has been taken place but the said document is not registered. the agreement for sale has done in the year 1993 and after that the seller has given an irrevokable power of attorney in the year 1994-Mar, which has been registered. But later on in the year 2001 the same owner without the knoledge of the intending purchaser has sold the land to other person and the same has been registered also.

Now my question is whether the intending purchaser can get back the land because in that agreement there is no time limitation.

 Request please quote the amendment. Tks.

 I have found the amendment and quote below. What about daughers married before the amendment came into force in 2004?

 Please read the amendement;

Provided that nothing contained in this sub-section shall apply to a daughter

married before the commencement of the Hindu Succession (Amendment) Act,

 Provided that nothing contained in this sub-section shall apply to a daughter

 Dear all

I think the amendment is a joke. Married daughters before the amendment came into force still donot still have the right. In other words, status quo continues and only the male members have the right to partition it. It is very funny. Married before and married after the amendment. What a law?

Get married after the amendment and get the share.
