Dear Experts of L C I,
A person not in a position go to Registrar's office, and registrar is not willing to visit his House ( As he is Busy/ no time to attend to private hose)! Under the circumstances What is the procedure to be adopted for Depositing of WILL deed? I was told Under registration Act 1908, one can Deposit the WILL( In Registration office) in absentia .
Please give me the wording to be USED ON THE SEALED COVER (WHICH CONTAINS THE WILL OF THE TESTATER) Etc.and any thing(INSISCRIBSONS) to be done on the cover.
Thank you ALL in advance.

I suggest you to deposit the amount of calling the representative of the registrar in your house to accept the will in the presence of witnesses similarly as is done in ordinary cases. If registrar cannot come then he is duty bound to send his represenntative subject to deposit of special charges thereon.
