The jurisdiction lies in Thane district court since Mulund falls under its limits. The correct jurisdiction is based on the deceased's permanent address or where the assets are situated. Apply there for the legal heir certificate.

For legal heir certificate the appropriate Jurisdiction is Bombay High Court if the property situated within Maharashtra and Goa. District court does not have jurisdiction for this.
I don’t think it is so necessary for PAN closure. However if there is refunds eligible then may be required.
Please be specific with respect to the assets and properties for which you need Succession Certificate
