I've paid the full price for a property to Mr. X, who inherited it from his father. All documents are ready for registration. Mr. X has a wife and a young son. His wife is seriously ill and has been hospitalized for the past three months. The doctors say her condition is critical, and she's unable to move. 1. Can I register the property with Mr. X alone, or does his wife need to be present? 2. If his wife passes away, can I then register the property with Mr. X only? 3. Are there any other ways to proceed with the registration with Mr. X?

In India, for property registration, the consent of all legal heirs is required. Since Mr. X's wife is a legal heir, her presence is necessary for registration. If she passes away, you can register the property with Mr. X after obtaining a succession certificate or probate proving his sole inheritance rights. Alternatively, explore obtaining a power of attorney from Mr. X's wife authorizing him to register the property on her behalf.
