To transfer the property jointly owned by your mother after her death, you need to follow these steps:

  1. Complete an Inheritance Tax form.

  2. Send your application to the Probate Registry which must include various information, such as an official copy of the deceased’s death certificate.

  3. Swear an oath: The promise that all the information you have given is true.

  4. Read your mother’s will to determine what property was left to you.

  5. Calculate the value of your mother’s estate.

  6. Identify the personal representative of your mother’s estate.

  7. Choose the correct probate court.

  8. Submit your mother’s will to the clerk of court.

  9. Complete an application for probate.

  10. Hire an attorney to assist with the administration of the estate.

However, if the property was registered in your mother’s name and she did not leave a will, the property can be inherited through the laws of succession. The laws of succession and inheritance are governed by personal laws which come under the Indian Succession Act, 1925. The Hindu Succession Act, 1956, also governs the succession of property for Hindus. After the amendment in 2005, daughters are also entitled to an equal share in their father’s ancestral property.
