There are supporting legal system for Indian women in case of property rights, however many a time’s women are not willing to utilize it because of fear of break of relationship. The present study attempts to study the knowledge of married educated women on matrimonial property rights in India. This shows that the respondents have minimum knowledge on property rights, even when they have knowledge the respondents are not ready to get their property from their relations because of the fear of break of relationships. On the other hand, the male counterparts are not ready to share their property with their sisters. This shows that legal system prevails in document form and in no way it helps women in grass root level.
