I find only advantages in marriages under the Special Marriage Act, 1954 %26amp; no disadvantages as been told by some person who knows NOTHING about Indian legal system %26amp; Indian enactments. As far inheritance by a Hindu of his parents property is concerned that has nothing to do with the manner of his or her marriage as that right to inherit is by birth %26amp; nothing to do with marriage, secondly the marriage under this Act has nothing to do with the religion, caste, creed, nationality etc of any persons getting married under this Act, they can be belonging to any religion, caste, creed, nationality etc or of same that hardly effects the legality of the marriage. The marriage under this Act require only one month prior notice given to the Marriage Officer %26amp; after the expiry of this notice period marriage in presence of three witnesses, registration %26amp; getting the Valid Marriage certificate. Do you know the total time take for marriage, its registration %26amp; getting the Marriage certificate is not more then 10 minutes in the Office/Court of the Marriage Officer %26amp; that too during office hours usually in the morning time. The right to inherent the property by succession or even as Hindu Coparcener in an Ancestral Hindu Property will in no way get effected by your civil marriage as there is no change of religion by you, secondly this right as previously told is by birth in the family not by virtue of your marriage.What are the disadvantages of marrying under Special Marriage Act?
I'll answer quickly as I am busy at the moment.
1. If you read the fine print - you cannot claim rights over family property etc. So if you have relatives who know this and won't to take away your share of inheritance if ever it can be used against you.
2. Special marriage act is normally when two diff religons marry
