We had certain immovable property in Assam and certain immovable property in Kolkata held under the HUF (Mitakshara Law) of my grand father in law and father in law acquired by my grand father inlaw through registered deed of Partial Partition and deed of release in 1971.
My father in law died in 1992 was survived by my mother in law, 2 sons and 6 daughters and 9 sisters. NOC relating to 9 sisters and 6 daughters had been obtained. After him my brother in law who happened to be the elder brother became Karta of the HUF of my father in law property.
Now there has been a unregistered, unstamped deed of family settlement in Dec 2008 signed by my brother in law and his wife, 3 sons and 2 daughter in law as parties of Lot A, AND
my mother in law, my husband, my minor daughter of 2 years and myself as the party Lot B wherein all the joint property was divided between parties of Lot A & Lot B. Parties of Lot A got the properties based in Assam and parties of Lot B got properties based in Kolkata. Wherein each of the parties of Lot A herein grant, convey, transfer, assign, assure, release and confirm to the party of the other lot the properties comprised in Kolkata and vice versa.
Subsequently to this deed of family settlement my husband died in March 2010.
Therafter pursuant to this deed of family settlement we have made mutation of property based in Kolkata in the name of my mother in law and myself.
Now I happen to get re- married in Dec 2015. I would like to understand the right of
A. My mother in law right in this inherited property
B. My daughter right in this inherited property
C. My right in my previous husband deceased property.
Further my mother in law wish to transfer her share both ancestral and self acquired to my daughter ( who happens to be minor.) So pursuant to the ancestral property and assuming that deed of family settlement is not legal and valid. What would be the best course of action to ensure transfer of Kolkata property in my daughter in law name.
Can my mother in law vide Registered/ unregistered will transfer her share to her grand daughter.
How can my daughter aged 7 years old acquire right in her father ancestral property.
Please let me know how the rights will flow and what documents need to be executed in this case and who all will be the party to these documents

Deed of Partition was made in 1971 and thereafter the property title has went to my grand father in law which was held in HUF. And after the death of my father in law in 1992 it was held in the HUF being operated by my brother in law as Karta.
Thereafter we have entered into a deed of family settlement which was unstamped and unregistered granting my mother in law, my husband, my daughter and myself the right on that property.
Since after the partition it was held by great grandfather in law and the property has come to us from him, we had assumed it to be ancestral.
Please advise can my mother in law and myself if we jointly decide to sell this property to a third party as on date can we do so by Sale Deed.
Is the mutation in my mother in law and my name legal.
Assuming Deed of Family Settlement is not legal and valid, what documents we need to execute to make my daughter have right on this property and who all would be the party to this document
