It is a self acquired property of the father which he bought in the name of his minor son and he was acting as the guardian of that property since the son was a minor. During the minority the son expired and naturally the property will revert back to the father. If he wants he can sell it or if it is retained after the fathers death it will go back to the legal heirs.
