Constitution of Joint Hindu Family

A Hindu dies intestate. He leaves behind land. Four First degree heirs i.e. sons share it now equally.

Now,  can the heirs constitute HUF with this property if such property was self acquired by deceased ?

Please clarify "Whether an HUF can be constituted out of self acquired property of Father when he dies intestate."

It should be noted that property is not brought from grandfather and its father's self acquired property.

if such property was self acquired by deceased ?

THEN PROPERTY OWNER HAS THE RIGHT TO DONATE OR SALE IT.

All the legal heirs are entittled for equal share in the property of the deceased.  After the death of the father it amounts to property of the family.  Heirs can constitute HUF

After the death of father dying intestate, the properties(either ancestral or self-acquiired) became a joint family property and succession/inheritance to the same shall be governed as per the provisions of Hindu succession act 1956
