- As per law, without being the joint owner of the land , the son even cannot enter his name in property card.

- Further, if father is owner of the land , then he can transfer the son by way of gift deed. 

- Farmer Property Card is issued to the owner of the land.

Dear Client,

Under Hindu law, a farmer's son can typically enter his name on the property card while the farmer is still alive if the property is ancestral or if the farmer voluntarily transfers the property to his son through a legal process such as a gift deed, will, or family arrangement. However, the son cannot unilaterally add his name without the farmer's consent.

The property should be transferred to his son's name in order to make the son the owner/shareholder of the property.

No he can only do that after his death or only with consent of farmer if he relinquishes his right

Yes. If it is inherited then automatically his right survives by way of inheritance. If it is self occupied property of father he may mutate his name in the property, however cannot dispose of his share or such whole parcel of land without prior consent of father. Needless to mention that the mutation of name in the revenue records does not create any civil rights in favor of the son in abeyance to rights that his father holds in such land. It is also necessary to mention that if the father was tenant under old tenancy act and has not been able to hold ownership by way of regularising the land under new act, the son cannot have inherited right in the tenancy land.
