Transfer of house number from father to son on inheritance.

Dear Client as per your query, 
If the property has already been legally registered in your name and you have applied for transfer of the house number after the death of your father by submitting all required documents along with the NOC from the other legal heirs, then the Panchayat authorities are normally bound to process the mutation or transfers in their records.

The transfer of a house number or mutation in local authority records is an administrative procedure meant to update ownership details for taxation and record purposes. 
Once the applicant has submitted the registered documents, the death certificate of previous owner, and NOCs from the legal heirs , the Panchayats Development Officer cannot arbitrary refuse or indefinitely delay the transfer without valid legal reasons. 
For further guidance feel free to contact us.
