Q: Query about succession certificate in case of property deal
My father entered into an agreement to sell a property in gurugram which is in his and my mothers name. He passed away after 2 months of the agreement and there was no will. For property mutation, a legal heir document is required with me and my mother's name. Is succession certificate same as legal heir certificate? Do I need to apply for succession certificate in Delhi where we reside or in Gurugram where the property is? We have the surviving member certificate.
Advocate Shekhar Banerjee answered
Succession certificate is different from legal heir/surviving member certificate.For immovable properties, legal heir/surviving member certificate will suffice.If you already have a surviving member certificate, you do not need a legal heir certificate. It is essentially the same thing.
Q: Whether to disinherit or Not Mention Son's Name in Beneficiary in Will
I am a Hindu living in Delhi. I want to make a registered will making my daughters as beneficiaries and don't want my Son and Son's daughter to get anything after my death. Should I explicitly disinherit them in will stating that they should not get anything or just leave their name from the list of beneficiary and just name my daughters as the beneficiaries. What will be better option.
Advocate Shekhar Banerjee answered
You can simply omit his name from your Will and ensure to get your Will registered. That will be more than enough.There is no need to explicitly disinherit your son. You can however state reasons for leaving him out of the Will.
Q: Difference between legal heir certificate and surviving member certificate
What is the difference between legal heir certificate and surviving member certificate? succession certificate vs surviving member certificate what is surviving member certificate ?

In essence they are the same thing and can be used for the same purpose. The legal heir certificate may be obtained from court while the the surviving member certificate is obtained from the office of DM. The surviving member certificate is faster and easier to obtain.
Q: Is oyo safe for unmarried couples without any legal problem
Me and my girlfriend want to spend quality time together, but public places often create issues like people staring, police harassment, etc. A friend suggested OYO couple-friendly hotels, but since this is our first time, we are a little scared.
We know that it is legal for both of us to book a hotel room as we are above 18 years old, but we are worried about possible harassment from hotel staff, police, or other people.
- Are OYO rooms safe for unmarried couples?
- What if police or anyone harasses us?
- Can they force us to go to the police station?
- How can we ensure our safety and security while staying in a hotel?
Advocate Shekhar Banerjee answered
Are OYO rooms safe for unmarried couples?
✔ Yes, OYO rooms are safe for unmarried couples as long as both individuals are above 18 years old and provide valid government-issued ID proof at check-in.✔ Booking a couple-friendly hotel on OYO ensures that the hotel management is aware and accepts unmarried couples, reducing any unnecessary issues.
✔ Legal Aspect: There is no law in India that prohibits unmarried couples from staying in hotels. Hotels are private businesses and have the right to set their policies, but as long as they accept bookings from couples, you are not doing anything illegal.
✔ How to Book a Safe Hotel on OYO:
- Choose a hotel with the "couple-friendly" tag.
- Check the hotel policies before booking.
- Make sure to carry valid government ID proof (Aadhaar, passport, voter ID, etc.).
Q: Separate registry of partitioned property
Hi, the property currently my family is living in, is partitioned between my father and his brother. Specific area is mentioned on registration deed for both the owners. I want to know what issues can there be in future if we want to sell our potion or in other scenarios. Also, if we want separate registration of our share, can it be done? And is there any way that we can skip stamp duty and registration charges as property area is big and we want to avoid the charges?
Advocate Shekhar Banerjee answered
Your current portion can be sold on the basis of the partition deed. If you want to further partition or transfer the property, that can also be done. Stamp duty and registration fee depends on state to state. Please contact me for detailed assistance.
