Legal Question in Real Estate Law in India

Hello Experts,

I have a quick question. We are staying in a pagdi system chawl. The rent receipt is on my grandfathers name till now. My grandfather and grandmother died long back. My father too died 5 years back. All the other document (Electricity, Ration card etc.) are on my mothers name now.

Now the landlord is not transferring the rent receipt on my mothers name. She says that my uncle and aunties permission is required to do the same (who do not stay with us and has moved long back). We stay and manage property since last 15 years.

My question is do my mother needs their permission to do so? Secondly if re-development plans in our area, whose name the new property will go? Is the rent receipt necessary to have the new property on my mothers name. If not what documents are really required?

Your expert help is really appreciated.

Thank you in advance

if the rent receipt is in your grandfathers name then an NOC is to be taken from the other children of your grandfather. you are in possession of the premises but they are entitled for their share too unless they give a noc in your favour.
