Dear Sir,

A residential flat at Mumbai, India, is in the name of my Brother and Mother. My Mother’s investment is around 76%. As housing was required to be taken, my Brother’s name is first and my Mother’s name is second in the agreement. The agreement does not specify the share in the investment of the residential flat.

My questions are as follows:

1. Can my Mother bequeath 76% of her share in the property in her will to say , e.g., myself or she can bequeath only 50% ?

2. Can my Mother submit the nomination form to the Co-operative Housing Society which is in respect of her share and signed only by her (& not by my Borther) ?

Please reply ASAP to me at (parikhyd[at-the-rate-of]rediffmail[dot]com.

) Regards,

Yatin D Parikh
