What do you mean by saying that you wrote the will of your father? Did you write the will in your handwriting or did you draft the will? Was it signed by your father? Has anyone else signrd as witnesses? A will must be signed by the testator and must be signed by two witnesses. There is no stamp duty for unregistered will and an unregistered will with attestation by two witnesses is also valid. In the cities of Mumbai, Kolkatta and Chennai, a probate has to be taken on the will after the death of the testator. The witnesses may be called before the magistrate to testify. A Probate will attract stamp duty.

i am from UP and here as per understanding there is no law regarding probate and will is legally accepted when it is registered. Please correct me if I am wrong

Probation is mandatory in some states only.

Just execute the willl

thanks for response, it means I can execute the will without registration and if other person is not willing to accept the will I can go legally in the court and this will be completely accepted in the court

Yes proceed, the witnesses and the scribe who drafted the will upon your father's instruction shall testify the same and you are done.

What is the type of property under the will, is it immovable property? If so get it mutated i.e. get the beneficiary's name entered in place of your father's in municipal and revenue records for tax purposes. Is it under possession of someone else? If so either you take back possession or ask the person to pay the beneficiary the dues which he was paying to your father.
