Yes, and this is a practical situation frequently encountered in Ahmedabad's property landscape, particularly for single flats, small plots, or structures that simply cannot be meaningfully divided while remaining functional for each co-owner. Indian courts recognise the right to partition doesn't depend on physical divisibility, and where division isn't feasible, courts have clear alternative mechanisms.

Where a court, often assisted by a commissioner's report under Order 26 Rule 9 of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908, determines physical division would be impossible or substantially diminish overall value, the court can order sale of the entire property, with proceeds distributed according to each co-owner's legally determined share.

This "partition by sale" ensures co-owners receive the full value of their share, even without a distinct physical portion, typically representing better value than an impractically subdivided portion too small to be useful. The sale is conducted under court supervision, either through public auction or court-approved private sale, ensuring fair market value.

Courts also have discretion, in appropriate circumstances, to allow one co-owner to buy out the others' shares at a fair, court-determined valuation, keeping the property intact within the family.
