1)From CIVIL COURT.
But it is issued for collection of debts and securities and cash at banks.
For immovable properties it is not required.

2)Death certificate and extracts of Family Register from village secretary or from local town area or municipal board(as the case may be) and particulars of debts and securities and cash at banks with their value.

As i understand by the reply to my query above, succession certificate is not required in case of a immovable property. Am I right? If that's true, will the title of an inherited flat be considered clear without a succession certificate?

ajay sethi (Expert) 29 October 2013
did the deceased leave any will . if he died intestate make an application to society for transfer of flat in name of legal heirs . furnish indemnity bond as required by society . comply with the legal formalities sought by society .
