Can a person trim or cut the branches of a neighbour's tree that is extending into his property and causing inconvenience? Does it need the neighbour's permission? What if the permission is sought but not given?

Yes, you need permission of the owner of the tree. If you request the neighbor to trim extending branches into your property, and he refuses to do so, you will be then allowed to trim only the parts which are inside your property.
