Send a letter by registered post to the concerned authority or bank where you have nominated your divorced wife and also give the name of the person whom you want to presently nominate. Also make a will bequeathing to whomever you want. it's the will which will prevail not the nomination.

Sir in this case you can anytime change your nomination but it is better to change the nomination and further to execute a registered will in favour of person to whom you want the property to go after your death, if currently you want to transfer then you can execute a registered gift deed. Further the wife will get the property if you do not execute any will in which case the property will go equally to all your class 1 legal heirs that is mother, wife and children who come under class 1
