Role of Nominee's legal heir in transfer of ownership


18-Aug-2023 (In Property Law)
My father owned a flat in a Cooperative Group Housing Society in Delhi which was later made free hold. He expired in the year 2010. Society traced the records and advised in Y2019 that he had made my elder brother his Nominee in the Society records. Before the Society and my brother could complete the required formalities unfortunately my brother also expired due to Covid-19 in April,2021. My father had written a WILL in the year 2010 and had made me the beneficiary of the WILL in respect of this flat and membership of the Society. The Society authorities are insisting that now the legal heirs of my brother has to step in his shoes to complete the formalities and I do not have any local standi. The WILL is not registered and not probated. But it could be probated now. My father resided in Gwalior, written the WILL at Gwalior and expired at Gwalior. The WILL covers another property at Gwalior of which my elder brother is the beneficiary. There is no family dispute.

If your brother has died and your father has left behind a will bequeathing the said property in your favor then you can get the title transferred by providing the copy of the Will and a No objection certificate from all the possible legal heirs of your father. Then also if the society refuses to transfer the share then you may proceed to court for suit for declaration. For any further legal assistance please feel free to contact

Thanks
