Q:I am a US citizen of Indian origin living in USA. I have two adult children. My husband who is no more had constructed a house in 1983 and had not left a WILL. But I do have a legal heir certificate and also got mutation of this property done when I visited India last year. Now we want to sell this property as it is, so can this be achieved in a time frame of six months. Also do we have to have an Aadhar card for all of us?
Latest Answer: A PIO (Person of Indian origin) can inherit immovable property from a person resident in India or a person acquired such property as per Foreign Exchange law in force or can receive property as gift from a person resident in India or a NRI or a PIO. A PIO can transfer any immovable property in India (other than agricultural land / farm house / plantation property) by way of sale to a person resident in India.
