Gayatri De vs Mousumi Cooperative Housing Society ...

The Supreme Court ruled that the legal heirs of a deceased member of a housing society are entitled to possession of the flat upon fulfilling all dues, as per the agreement made by the deceased. The Court emphasized that consent from all legal heirs is essential for the transfer of possession, and the society must comply with the legal heirs' request once dues are settled. The appeal was allowed, affirming the rights of the heirs to the property under the relevant contractual obligations.
