Correct legal procedure is to probate the will of your father and once the probate of the will is over you can move the sub registrar office under which your property comes and give a formal request for transfer in your name.

you should get probate from the appropriate court and on the basis of the probate granted by the competent court you have the right to sell your fathers property. unless you cannot sell your fathers property on the basis of will itself.
