As per the Transfer of Property Act, 1882, is a transfer of property by only one of the competent co-owners of the property legal?

Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer A

Under section 44, one of two or more co-owners of immovable property, legally competent in that behalf, may transfer his share or interest without the consent of the others and without any court permission, so the answer is "Yes". The transferee acquires the transferor's right to joint possession and to enforce a partition, subject to the dwelling-house exception for undivided families. The transfer carries only the transferor's own share, not the shares of the other co-owners.
