Y has to produce the Will copy to the bank and can claim the deposits. X can not claim just because of the WILL.

Bank would release deposit to nominee till any court order received otherwise.

Y may approach the bank with copy of the WILL.
Otherwise also nominee is just the hand to receive and a mere trustee.
RBI has issued guidelines:'Master Circular on Customer Services': and you may go thru section 19,20 and onward.

Nominee has right to claim from the Bank and Bank will be discharged of its duty by making payment to the Nominee. However, Nominee is dutybound to hand over the money to the eligible legal heirs as per the Will/Succession Certificate.
