only two sons are partner and the property is ancestral.

It is not advisable at the initial stage, to introduce the building in which mother is also a co-owner except the two sons. . If all the co-owners enter into a partnership, the value credited to partners in the books of the firm is taken as the sales consideration, and all the partners will be liable to capital gains tax, in case the amount credited is more than the indexed cost of acquisition of the property.
. Registration will not be required, as the asset is owned by the partners.
