The portal will offer investors and companies a one-stop solution for design of projects, seamless approvals and easier estimation of costs.   “The mission is to implement projects without time overrun and cost overrun," Amrit Lal Meena, special secretary of logistics in the ministry of commerce and industry, said in an interview in New Delhi. “Global companies choosing India as their manufacturing center is the objective."

Once divided among the stakeholders, an ancestral property would cease to be an ancestral property, and turn into a self-acquired property. 2. How many generations can claim ancestral property? In case of a classified ancestral property that has remained undivided, four generations of the male lineage have their claim. Basically, the father, the grandfather, the great grandfather and the great-great grandfather have inheritance rights over an undivided ancestral property. This means, say, on Ram’s ancestral property, his son Shyam, Shyam’s son Ghanshyam and Ghanshyam’s son Radhe Shyam have inheritance rights. Also, whenever someone inherits a property from any of his paternal ancestors up to three generations above him, his legal heirs of up to three generations below him would get equal right, as coparceners in that property.
