What is ancestral property-
If we look at the general classification of land in India, then mainly land is acquired by any person in two ways. The first is that which the person has bought by himself or has received through gift, donation or relinquishment of rights by someone (not taking his share of land) etc. Such property is called self acquired property.
Apart from this, the second type of land is that which the father has received from his forefathers. The land acquired in this way is kept in the category of ancestral property. The laws regarding sale of ancestral property are a bit stricter as compared to self-acquired property.
Who can sell ancestral property-
Ancestral property is claimed by four generations of the family. If a decision is to be taken to sell this property, then this property cannot be sold on the basis of personal consent of any one person. Nor can it be sold on the basis of the decision of its partial owners.
To sell the ancestral property, the consent of every stakeholder (which includes daughters) is necessary. When all the parties agree, the ancestral property can be sold as per the legal procedures.
Legal recourse can be taken for selling without consent-
If the ancestral property is sold without the consent or consultation of the parties related to it, then other related parties can send a legal notice regarding this. In such a situation, a stay may be imposed on the sale of the property or the sale may also be cancelled.
