https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=397628 Amended Section 6 of the Hindu Succession Act confers coparcenary rights on a daughter by birth, with the same rights and liabilities as a son, and it does not depend on the father coparcener being alive on the amendment date. The saving provision protects only genuinely completed prior dispositions, alienations and partitions, with "partition" confined to a registered partition deed or a court decree; oral or informal claims are not ordinarily sufficient to defeat the daughter's statutory right. The notional partition under the unamended proviso was only for determining the deceased coparcener's share and did not end the coparcenary, so the amended law applies in pending partition proceedings until final decree. en-us Tue, 11 Aug 2020 00:00:00 +0530 Sat, 20 Nov 2021 16:22:00 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=397628 Amended Section 6 of the Hindu Succession Act confers coparcenary rights on a daughter by birth, with the same rights and liabilities as a son, and it does not depend on the father coparcener being alive on the amendment date.
