Generally, in India, a legal notice for the partition of the property can be sent mainly in two scenarios:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n- It shall be an illegal act when one or more than one member of a joint undivided property sells, gifts, mortgages, leases out, or disposes of the property in any other way. Without written consent of all the other co-owners, such transfer or disposal of the property could be opposed by others through a legal notice by the advocate of the property for partition. The rule shall be applicable only in case of ancestral property and not in the case of self-acquired properties. The legal heirs of the deceased owner of a self-acquired property will be able to dispose of their property as per their wish. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
- On the other hand, if there is one or more than one owner in a joint property who is willing to partition the property and has expressed their intention to each other, and if other owners of the property deny doing so, then an advocate notice for partition suit could be sent against them.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
After having received the legal notice, if defendants agree with the terms mentioned in the legal notice, then all parties can sign a Deed of Partition mutually. The drafting of the notice should be done by a competent advocate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As has been discussed above, if or when there is an infringement of one\u2019s rights over the property in situations where other relatives or members of his or her family have illegally disposed of the common undivided property, he or she can file a suit for declaration and a suit for a permanent injunction. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
If the property in question has already been sold or disposed of by the other co-owners to a third party, then the aggrieved person will also have to send a legal notice for partition suit to the other co-sharer as well as the third-party purchaser. After sending the notice, one would have to file a suit for permanent injunction as well as cancellation of such an injunction before the respective Civil Court.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
