https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=40216 Section 15 of the Hindu Succession Act, 1956 governs intestate succession to a female Hindu's property. Although the husband is normally included among the heirs under section 15(1), section 15(2)(a) creates a specific exception for property inherited by a female Hindu from her father or mother. If she dies leaving no son, daughter, or child of any pre-deceased son or daughter, that property devolves on the heirs of the father rather than on the heirs listed in section 15(1). On that construction, the husband is excluded from inheriting such paternal property, and a decree granting him partition was held erroneous. en-us Wed, 07 Sep 1994 00:00:00 +0530 Mon, 26 Apr 2010 11:33:53 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=40216 Section 15 of the Hindu Succession Act, 1956 governs intestate succession to a female Hindu's property.
