Can my wife get property transferred on her name


18-Jan-2023 (In Property Law)
My wife is from MP. She has 2 brothers. Father died in 2004 leaving behind his self-acquired property on mother's name. She wants to transfer it to my wife but the elder son is creating pressure and not letting her do it. Does my wife has any right on the property and can she file suit regarding this to help her mother transfer property?

(1) Your wife cannot file any suit for getting the property transferred to herself.

(2) Your brother-in-law cannot legally pressurize your mother-in-law to distribute the property.

(3) Your desire to get whole property transferred to your wife is not morally right. As the property was self-acquired property of your father-in-law, then it will be justified that your brother-in-laws too get equal share.

(4) No one has right on the property except your mother-in-law. She can dispose the property according to her will, but her will should not be affected by influence of anyone including you and your wife.

If the property is a self acquired property by your mother then she can transfer the same to anybody. Your wife can not file any suit in relation to the self acquired property. Also the right of a daughter in the coparcenary's property is generated only after amendement in Hindu Succession Act in 2005 with a condition that on the date of amendment in 2005 both the father and daughter must be alive.
