Will drafted in 1996, the testator and the two witnesses are not alive


09-Jun-2023 (In Property Law)
My gradndfathers elder brother having no legal issues, drafted a will in 1996 on a normal paper, in favour of my mother. But now, neither my grandfather nor his brother or either of the witnesses are alive. Is it possible that the will could be challenged by my aunt who has no share in the property but her sons have been granted 20% share in the will. THe will has not been registered or probated. Will my mother get her 80% share in toto.

Yes. Your mother will get share in property.. Firstly You need to apply for grant of probate of Will... If you and your aunt mutually ready to divid shares yhen it is easy for you both to claim your sharea in that property
