If in the case the wife is the joint owner of the flat and son is major in age. In this case, you'll need to draw a Succession Deed followed either/or by a relinquishment deed (Son giving up his share in the properties) and mandatory Partition deed as per the Goa succession and Inventory proceedings Act 2012. This process will acquire you a clear title for sale in Goa. Other compliance would be your Building transfer ownership title.
Relinquishment Deed has to be with regards to all properties cannot be relinquished in part.
