Female members are not treated as coparceners of the HUF though they may be member of the joint family, the rights to became a manager depends upon the fundamental factthat the person on whomthe right devoved was a coparcener of joint family. SC has held in case of CIT Vs Seth Govindram Sugar Mills ( AIR 1966 SC 24) that widow can not be karta of HUF
