Old Will mentions property that has been replaced by another property
24-Aug-2023 (In Wills / Trusts Law)
My father made a will when he was 60 years old. The will states that I will be the heir to ALL his Immovable property INCLUDING property X. My father is now 80 years old and has not made any other will. But in the last 20 years, he sold property X & from the proceeds purchased property Y and property Z. In the event of my father's passing away, will I still be the legal heir to all his immovable property (which now includes Y and Z, but not X)?
Note: Property X was not an ancestral property.
See in this we first need to read the Will in great detail in order to see that whether has your father stated in the will that if in future he acquires any other property then in that case also will that property/properties will belong to you or someone else. I would require more details in order to guide you well.

Yes, bare reading of the Will states all immovable properties. There is something called a Codicil which can be registered as there is a change in the property mentioned in the Will. To ensure that no claims from other legal heirs come in the future, it's important you secure yourself with a codicil. Or a new Will in it's entirety.
