• Transfer of land documents to mother

Dear Sir
My father purchased a plot 20 years back. Unfortunately he expired due to ill health some 14 years back. My father hasnt left any will as to what is to be done with that property. I would like to know that what is the procedure in transferring the legal rights to my (widowed mother). We are 3 siblings settled comfortably at different places and all we three are married. Being children of her we would like that property be transferred to her name. 

Thanking you sir

1. On death of your father the said property devolves upon you all in equal share.

2. So make your mother sole owner of the plot amongst you all, the rest of you will have to execute a deed of release/relinquishment in favour of your mother

2. The said deed of release/relinquishment will have to be registered on payment nominal stamp duty.

As your father died intestate,so, all his legal heirs have equal share in the property.By executing release deed by all heirs in favour of your mother she can become sole owner thereof.

In the absence of any will being made by your father during his lifetime his widow and all children have an equal share in the property of which he was the owner. If you and your siblings are into a positive agreement to transfer the entire property to your mother then you may do so by making a relinquishment deed in her favour. The deed should be registered in accordance with law.

All are entitled to get 1/4 share over the property and you ( 3 member) can release your right in favour of your mother by execution of register release deed before sub registrar office.
