Q: Can a will be challenged after twelve years of drafting? What is the time limit to challenge a will

Can a will be challenged on grounds of fraud even after 12 years to protect my rights? What is the time limit to challenge a will in India, and can a will be contested after 20 years?

Advocate Arun Pratap Singh answered
This is not clear as to when fraud committed was known to you. If fraud has been committed 12 years ago and it was in your knowledge, you can't challenge the same . But if you knew about the fraud in nowadays you have right to protect your interest and the will can be challenged on the aforementioned grounds.
