A.There's no provision in law that you become can claim a title to the property on the bases of paying corporation/municipal taxes. Once a partition deed is registered, each claimer has their own right in their share portion. You can apply to the corporation/municipal authorities to issue separate tax bill of your portion in the property. This is done by submitting the partition deed along with mutation form and application. If you had paid house tax since 14 years, you may file a civil suit for recovery of the money you paid paid for house tax. Please contact a local lawyer from Vidhikarya.

A.What is the status of the property. Whether it is ancestral or anything else? Paying taxes doesn't make you the owner of the property
