This query is : Resolved
Is it necessary to register a will? If so & if not can you please mention the relevant law,section/case law? Plentif's father had self earned property. He passed entire property to his elder son only child alive. His younger son was deceased much earlier. Plentiff's father had written a will in his own handwritting, with a doctor and a CA as witnesses;in which he decleared the only alive son as legal heir and extended complete ownership of the property. Can the widow of the deceased brother still claim share in the property?

if it is Self Acquired proerty of father and will is properly executed with all legal requirements, though will is not Registered, the Will Deed will prevail!
