30-Apr-2023 (In Civil Law)
Want to get legal heir cert. I am a NRI and my sisters and brother are in chennai. My parents are no more. Our parents property is in chennai and we want to dispose off this for which we need to apply for the legal heir cert. What is the fees, How long does it take and what are the documents needed Are there any agents in chennai whom I can trust to get it as early as possible,
Generally, people go in for Legal Heir certificate issued by Taluk office. The Revenue Department officials get declaration and affidavit from the applicant, from other legal heirs and issue the certificate. It has no legal sanctity. But practically it is convenient and invariably people rely upon this certificate. No fee is prescribed. We have to apply and closely follow it up.

One of your brothers or sisters can apply for the legal heirship certificate. The actual fees is only a few hundred rupees but you may have to spend a lot more if you want the work done faster. It will take about 10-15 days depending upon the office where you apply. My office can get this work done as we have a person to take care of such work.
