Procedure for sale of joint property


01-Jan-2023 (In Property Law)
hi we are a hindu family having a joint family owned property in Ahmednagar, Maharasthra, India. Sole owner died in 2001 & post sdeath the property was inherited by 7 children of the sol owner, 5 brothers & 2 sisters. My husband died in August, 2013. i have now retired & I need my share in the property. however out of the seven inheritants 6 of them do not agree as they prefer to sell the property at a desired rate which at this moment is a far-cry as the property prices arent great in the area in question. therefore I would like your support in resolving this dispute as I need an equal share in the property upon selling the same.

Not able to figure out, whether you are one of the sister or a widow of one of the brothers. However, you can get your share in the joint hindu family property, subject to your existing rights. (Perusal of Documents will give clear picture, enabling me to give proper legal advise/solution)

What do you want a share in property or a share in the share proceeds. If you want a share in the property you can file a suit of partition. Otherwise if u want a share in share proceed then you may inquire about the market price of the property and see as to whether your co-owners are actually selling the property for that price or not if not then you can take an objection for the proposed sale as the will not take place without your convent. No need to sell the property at those 6 co owners rate.
