Clarification on Nomination, Will & Sale of Inherited Flat


20-Jun-2026 (In Property Law)
My mother owns 50% of a house, while the remaining share is held by two NRI co-owners. There is no physical demarcation or partition of the property. Could you please clarify whether my mother can sell her undivided share to an external buyer without informing or obtaining consent from the other co-owners? Also, does the lack of partition create any legal issues in such a sale? We pay monthly ebill and annual property tax Kindly advise.

Hello, firstly I need to know that how the other NRI co-sharers are related to your mother, I meant to say that are they relatives? in any case your mother can sell her undivided share, there is no doubt about it. but there may be some consequences which may be dealt with later.
