Hindu Adoptions and Maintenance Act, 1956
28. Effect of transfer of property on right to maintenance
Where a dependant has a right to receive maintenance out of an
estate, and such estate or any part thereof is transferred, the right to
receive maintenance may be enforced against the transferee if the transferee
has notice of the right or if the transfer is gratuitous; but not against the
transferee for consideration and without notice of the right.
