My father make a will and give his (My father) Share to his son (My brother) without my Knowledge. And In that will my father transfer his share to my brother. In May 2009 I and my brother sign an affidavit to my father because my father wants to take a loan from bank. But the loan was not sanctioned due to some circumstances. Suddenly, In April 2010. My father has been expired. Now, my brother said to me, he is the owner of the full house because I am signed an affidavit.

Hi Harpeet As per Hindu Succession Act your father is Class II heir. It means he will have share only if your mother does not have any children. Hence you and your brother are the only children you both are the heir.Hence you have 50% share in the property.Your father has no right on the property. More over your affidavit favouring your father has not been registered hence you have 50% share in the property. If my advice helps you kindly donate Rs.1000 to a orphanage.

Hi, Kindly buy Hindu Succession Act bare act from a law book seller or see it in net.There will be schedule to the Act.In that schedule you will find the list of Class I and Class II heirs. Moreover the share received by your father due to your mothers death is illegal.It is because as a class II heir he can get the property only if your mother does not have children (children are Class I heirs). Also consult a good civil advocate in your area by keeping my points in mind

"Also consult a good civil advocate in your area by keeping my points in mind -Sivasankar"
If you want to get 50% share in your mother's property, for which you were legaly entitled, as expert Sivasankar has opined, you must follow his advise.
Matters related with affidavit can be easily sorted out by a civil advocate.
