Hi,

A partition deed is drafted to ensure lealdistribution of a property between co-owners and it enables the owners to dispose off their portion at will by way of sale, transfer or gft. 

 Provisions of The Partition Act, 1893 will be applicable in case of jointly owned property.  

A partition deed may be filed by the coparceners of the property; physical presence of each and every coparcener is not necessary for the same. 

A POA from the on living aborad will be required at the time of executing the sale deed, if any.

Best regards,
Megha
