Can one owner lease out property that is jointly owned in india
04-Jul-2024 (In Property Law)
In India, jointly owned property cannot be rented out by a single co-owner without the consent of the other co-owners. All co-owners hold equal rights over the property, including decisions related to its use such as leasing or renting.
While one co-owner may manage minor matters like maintenance or repairs, renting out the entire property requires mutual agreement from all parties involved. If a co-owner attempts to lease the property without the consent of the others, the lease can be legally challenged and may be deemed invalid unless there is a prior agreement that allows such action.
