Dear Sir, as per your query,

 

If the co-applicant’s name is also on the sale deed / conveyance deed / builder-buyer agreement, then:

They are a co-owner.

 They have equal legal rights in the property as per the ownership share mentioned (or presumed 50-50 if not specified).

They can sell, mortgage, or inherit their share.
