Re: Hindu Undivided Family

Mortgaging the property of an HUF for a debt of a third party should be backed by the necessity of the HUF to guarantee repayment of the loan of the third party. The consent of all members in writing to the Kartha/Manager of the HUF first to guarantee the loan and also to be backed by the mortgage of the HUF property should be obtained. These are normally the precautions to be taken. Individual cases have to be examined by the creditor's legal advisers and their advice both on the preliminaries as well as modality of taking mortgage should be obtained and followed.
