Legal Question in Real Estate Law in India
Hi
My Grandfather wrote a will saying his House with land will be shared equally within his three daughters.This will was registered.
But after 20 years without cancelling the will, he wrote a settlement paper saying he is giving the house with land to his 3rd daughter only and so others doesnt have any rights on that property.This settlement paper also registered.In this condition which is valid?Registered will or Registered sttlement paper?

The Will and the Settlement will have to be studied thoroughly for an opinion.

A Will take effect only after death of testator.
Since your grandfather, during his life time, disposed of the property, the bequest in Will of the same property would become redundant.
in case the property is his self owned/acquired, he can dispose off the same through will but in case it is a joint family property, the will is non effective and you all have an equal share in the property. give details.
