Renting apartment owned by deceased father

All the legal heirs of your father have equal rights over the property along with you.  Hence all the legal heirs can decide and after transferring the name to one of the legal heirs then only can give it to rent.

It is not advisable to let out the property belonging to your deceased father on lease or rent before getting the property transferred to your name, it will not be legally maintainable in case of any litigation.

Many thanks for the advise to both the experts.

There is no legal impediment in becoming landlord of the property left behind by your father / owner. You can /should rent out the property even when it is not transferred in your name, if you are satisfied with credentials of prospective tenant.

Landlord and Titleholder can / may be different persons.

Thanks, but conflicting advises by experts so I'm no wiser now..I am losing 35k per month rent till I get it transferred to my name. :-(

You shoukld use your prudence instead of agitating over the legal issue in this regard, you are worried about the instant loss instead of foreseing the future legal consequences.
