The legal heir certificate is issued by the SDM(Sub Divisional Magistrate) of the area on the basis of any application submitted by you.

An inquiry is made by the SDM through the SHO(Station House Officer ) of the area and on being satisfied by the inquiry vis a vis your application, the Legal Heir Certificate would be issued to you.
