Legal Question in Real Estate Law in India

Dear Sir,

My father went missing since 7 years and a final report has also been given by the police stating as untraced. He has a house in his name and he has 4 children. In such a case how the property could be divided and what is the procedure to be followed in such circumstances. Will the daughters of the said person get equal share. We belong to Hindu religion and the property is not an ancestral one & is earned by him. My mother ( missing person's wife) expired last year & even has death certificate of her.

Waiting for a reply.

thank u

Since you belong to Hindu Religion.

The share has to be divided equally to the Son's and Daughter's obviously.

All the legal heirs will inherit equally. You may need to file a civil suit for declaring "civil death" of your father.
