Dear Client,

Yes, parents can generally disinherit a son from their self-acquired property by executing a valid, registered Will, as they possess complete power of disposal over the property. Therefore, a daughter-in-law does not usually possess any right in respect of the property belonging to her in-laws while obtaining a divorce. Nevertheless, mere disowning of the son does not amount to completely protecting the property from residence claims because, as per the PWDVA, a daughter-in-law can still exercise her legal right to stay in a shared household, though she cannot claim ownership. I hope this answer helps. If you have any further query kindly do not hesitate to contact us. Thank you

Yes, parents can disinherit or disown their son and children. Self acquired property is exclusive property of parents and they can give their property to any person of their choice. Parents donot require any ground or reason to disown their son and children.
