Hello,..if your father died intestate i.e. without making any will then property will be distributed equally among all four. if there is will then then property will go as per the will. however in Mumbai before transferring property, you have to obtain probate fro the court if there is will and letter of administration if there is no will.

Both ancestral & self acquired property can be coparcenary property. while in case of ancestral property,it is equally shared by all members of the coparcenary, in case of self acquired the person is free to manage the property according to his own will. u do not know whether your father made a will or not will.u take extract of the property and also histroy of 30 years if cts extract if 7/12 extract take mutation entry below yuor name so u can understand how property to their name. if your had not made will then your mother and u and your brothers names were recorded on the extract as legal heir.

Dear Querist,
1) as per the Maharashtra Rent Control Act the legal heirs of the tenant are included in definition of tenants (have tenancy rights)
In relation to any premises, when the tenant dies, whether the death occured before or after the commencement of the Act, any member of the tenant's family, who, --
(i) where they are let for residence, is residing, or

(ii) where they are let for education, business, trade or storage, is using the premises for any such purpose,
with the tenant at the time of his death, or, in the absence of such member, any heir of the deceased tenant, as may be decided, in the absence of agreement, by the court.
2)
a. if the property is being re-developed as per D.C.Rules 33(7) then the occupants who are certified by MHADA Authorities have right for permanent alter accommodation (if the property is situated in the limits of Gr. Mumbai and establish your occupancy rights before it)
b. if the property is situated outside the greater limits you have to establish your occupancy rights as a tenant and claim for your rights before the developer/landlord.
3) On failure to establish your occupancy rights you need to seek declaration from appropriate Civil Courts.
4) As far as tenancy law is concerned the same cannot be bequeathed under a will and you need to take appropriate steps to protect your interest.
