PLZ HONOUR MY QUERY!!!

PLZ SMBDY REPLY.......

1. It includes only those persons who acquire by birth interest in the joint or coparcenary property, these being the sons, grandsons and great-grandsons of the holder of the joint property for the time being. Thus from my point of view married daughters does not act as a hindu coparcener.

2. No female cannot demand partition.

3.There is no need for formal registration for an HUF. If you are eligible to form an HUF you can simply open a bank account , obtain a PAN number and start business in the name of the HUF.

Partition of Ancestral Property:

* On a partition of a HUF, which includes the father, mother, and sons, the mother has no right to claim partition, but when the partition is actually effected she takes the share equal to the sons.

* On a partition between a father and his sons where the mother is not living, each son takes a share equal to that of the father.

* On a partition of a joint family consisting of brothers they take equal shares.

* Each branch takes per stripe as regards every other branch, but members of each branch take per capita as regards each other.

* None of the unmarried daughters has a right to share on partition but the partition should provide for their maintenance and education till their marriage and for their marriage expenses.

If i am wrong in any of the point then please let me know.

As per amendment in 2005  to Hindu Succession Act 1956 ,
