Certain vital facts are missing in your query: 1. Where and how did you get the will of X probated in Y's name? Did you prove the will in any competent court and obtain letters of administration in favour of Y? 2. How did you change the property in Y's name? Was it registered? I would be in a better position to answer your query fully and meaningfully, if you provide these facts.

If the probate has been obtained, it is advisable that the EC and the revenue records are changed in your name.
You will have to apply for an EC as on date. If the entry of probate does not appear, please write a letter to the concerned SRO requesting him/her to add the entry.
