Property rights for women as a mother

The section below describes the property rights of a woman as a mother- According to the Hindu Succession Act, 1956, mothers are considered Class I heirs to a property. That means if a male or female property owner dies, the laws of succession recognise the spouse, children, and parents as legal heirs to their estate. Even in the absence of a Will, the Hindu Succession Act, 1956 ensures a fair and just distribution of a mother's assets, with no discrimination based on gender. This extends to married daughters as well, ensuring equality in inheritance. Mothers also maintain the right to dispose of their share of the property as per their wishes. In these cases, keeping a signed Will can avoid property disputes in the future. In a joint family, a widowed mother is entitled to an equal share of her son's property.
