we had a will. it is lost. can we draft a new will without the old one?
Till the time individual is alive he can make as many number of wills he desires, and last will be considered effective. In addition if ealier will which is lost and if that was registered, you can procure certified copy of same from office of sub registrar. If it was not registered, then get a new will executed.

Yes, a new Will can be drafted in super-cession of the previous Will by mentioning in the new Will that any Will previously executed stands cancelled. The effect shall be that even if the previous lost Will gets traced out, the same shall not take effect. The contents of the fresh/ new Will shall have an over-riding effect over the provision of the previous Will.
