How to transfer property from grandfather to grandson?

The right of a grandson to the property of a grandfather depends upon the applicable inheritance law. In India, there isn’t any uniform Law of Inheritance. Inheritance and Succession are subject to several personal laws, depending upon religion. Let me explain how to transfer property from grandfather to grandson in case they both are Hindu:

The right of a grandson to the ancestral property of a grandfather is by birth. It doesn’t depend upon the death of his grandfather or father. A grandson has a share of his grandfather's property since birth. Property is distributed in a way that each share gets divided into successive generations.

There are two ways to inherit a self-acquired property:

By rules of succession

By a will

If the deceased grandfather has left behind a Will, and that Will mentions that the grandson will have a certain share of their property, then that grandson will be entitled to inherit that share of grandfather’s property.

If no will has been left behind, then the Hindu Succession Act, 1956 will determine whether the grandson will have a right on the property of grandfather or not. The grandson can inherit their grandfather's property only if their parents have died before that grandfather.
