Dear Cleint,

Probate of WILL is compulsory in Mumbai.

Registered WILL has Legal Sanctity unless contrary is not proved.

But as probate is compulsory in Mumbai, apply for it in District Court, Once court grant probate order, on the basis of it, get the property transfer by applying with municipality.

Or can try for transfer of name in municipal records on the basis of registered WILL, less possibility,might they not ask for probate.

No immovable property of a minor can be sold without the previous permission of the court.

Since besides you, this property also belongs to your two minor children, you will need the above permission from the Court to sell-off this property.

This is what you have to do:

1. You should file a probate petition in the court;

2. Issue notice in 2 local news papers inviting claims and objections in respect of the property;

3. Get an indemnity bond and affidavit in the required format as per the bye-laws of the society;

4. Get the original death certificate of your mother;

5. If the court is satisfied about the ownership of the flat and the genuineness of the will, the property can be transferred in your name and then you can further sell it.

Firslty, apply for the succession certificate from the civil court plus probate of will also.

Secondly, then get the property transfer on your name through the registrar office then you can sell it as it’s real owner.

If the property involves minor interest then you cannot sell the share of the properties that belong to your minor children without the permission of court competent.

You can file a petition before concerned court seeking permission to sell the share of immovable property that belongs to them

you cannot sell the property that involves minors' interest without court permission.

you consult a local advocate who may suggest a different tactic

Hi,

You are suggested to first get the property changed on your name from registrar's office and then you may sell the property.

Only the will which is situated under the original jurisdiction of high court if Bombay needs to be probated before having legal validity. In your case your will is valid and you can sell, transfer your property in the said case without any hindrances. You can transfer the property in your name by bringing your name on the records of your Society by providing death certificate of your mother.

1. Minor's property CANNOT be sold without Court permission.

2. IF Court permission is available, THEN, EXECUTE a duly stamp duty paid and registered "sale deed" in favor of the new buyer, annexing the court order and a indemnity bond in favor of the buyer. Here the father (as guardian) can sign the Sale Deed. This will be sufficient for all legal purposes.
