630 votes

If the property that your father bought is out of his own earnings then this property will be his self earned property, otherwise it will be considered to be a joint family property. You claim that the joint family properties remain undivided. In this scenario if the other members are able to establish that this property was purchased from out of the income and earnings of that joint family corpus, then the other members can stake a claim to this property as well.

It has looked into the source of income to purchase said property. and When it is purchased, if any body claims that source of income to purchase said property from joint family income then it comes under joint family property.

Property that is purchased from self-earned money will be independent and not added to the Joint Family Property. However, he has to make it clear that he has purchased the property through his own money, and not money from the Joint Family funds.
