In case of a dying woman without a will, class 1 legal heir who will inherit the properties movable and immoveable will be Husband and Children only and not the parents of the woman. For movable property you need legal heir certificate and for immovable property you need succession certificate.

Sure it can be obtained. You have to go through a proper channel and within a period of 15-30 days the legal heir certificate can be obtained. You need to furnish some information for the same to us. Please feel free to contact. Thanks

You will have to apply for the surviving member certificate for getting the immovable property of the deceased but for getting the movable assets from the bank, you will have to apply for the succession certificate from the Civil Court.
