Is an NOC or Legal Heirship Cert Required?
07-Dec-2024 (In Property Law)
Hi, My mother was taken care by me for 32 years after my father's expiry. She has made a will on my name, on her property. The will is a registered one, with two witnesses. In this case, is a NOC from my younger sibblings or a Legal Heirship Certificate, a must?
Thank you.
By virtue of the Will, you are solely entitled to the estate of the deceased to the exclusion of all other legal heirs. There is no need to get any other legal heir's consent. But, apart from the death certificate, the legal heirs certificate also is required for establishing your right over the property inherited.
hi Felix here, I can well understand your concern from the query raised, it depends on the nature of the property and the will written by your father and in the absence of a will the property shall be equally distributed among all the three legal heirs your mother, yourself and your younger sibling, thank you, you can contact me for further clarifications
