My father passed away 33 years ago, leaving behind a house he built himself. My sisters and I are Hindu daughters, and we’ve been unable to claim our share of the house. Can we file for partition now, in 2016? Is there a time limit for filing this kind of case? What if my brother has made major changes to the house while living there? I need advice urgently.
Under Indian law, there is no specific time limit to file for partition of ancestral property. However, a delay in filing may be considered by the court and could affect the outcome. You can still file for partition, but your brother's improvements to the house will be considered during the division. Consult a lawyer immediately for specific advice on your situation.
