https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=285109 HUF-based partition and possession claims require specific material pleadings establishing the legal basis of the alleged HUF and the character of each property. Mere assertions that property is ancestral or that a joint Hindu family exists are insufficient after the Hindu Succession Act, 1956. Where inheritance before 1956 is relied upon, pleadings must identify that inheritance; where a post-1956 HUF is alleged, they must state when and how self-acquired property was thrown into the common hotchpotch.

Without such facts, an HUF-based partition claim does not disclose a sustainable cause of action. en-us Mon, 18 Jan 2016 00:00:00 +0530 Thu, 26 Dec 2019 17:46:12 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=285109 HUF-based partition and possession claims require specific material pleadings establishing the legal basis of the alleged HUF and the character of each property.
