probate rules are different from that of a nomination. probate is allowed and granted in metropolitan cities including Mumbai. however in your case it's not necessary as the nomination of your father is done by your grandfather during his lifetime hence the society need not ask you to get a probate of the will which is absolutely unnecessary. the society must follow it's guidelines as per MCS act which stipulates and recognises nominations and the nominee and the society cannot reject your application to enter your father's name and it's unlawful. i would suggest to talk some sense to the society's administration if they do not listen issue legal notice and complaint to the society registrar office.

nominee is not the owner of the property. if there is a will then u have to secure a probate for the same. in case u don't wish to get a probate then u need to get a succession certificate or letter of administration for the said property by seeking an noc from your aunty. u can call me in case of further assistance.
