Re: recovery of funds from huf

for creation of right you must have title over the interest or permission from the owner.

if there is nothing then your right will remain in danger till the expiry of the limitation.

live on risk or contact lawyer to take action or advice as per your situation.

Re: recovery of funds from huf

Women have limited right in HUF. Married women cannot claim any right till their husband alives. Unmmarried can claim support amount as well as right to live in HUF property and in the event of partition they may claim share.

In the present matter, the woman who has built a flat from her self owned funds on the terrace on HUF preperty without any writing, has taken risk of her own. In the event of partition, she has to place her case with her proof /documents. If the karta has no objection than woman must obtain no objection in writing.

the woman can file suit regarding her claim if karta is refusing her claim
