Query related to will certification
09-Aug-2023 (In Wills / Trusts Law)
Want to know how much does it cost and time frame to get the probate of will/succession certificate?
Hello,
Firstly your query is not specific but i shall try to answer it. No advocate can clearly specify the exact time as it depends on gravity of the matter. The entire procedure is based on value of subject matter as court fee and litigation charges is based on value of your property. It can cost you anywhere between Rs.75,000 to Rs. 1,50,000. Appearance and consultation fees is variable and might cost extra based on Advocate's experience.
You can contact us if you need help in your matter.

it take around six month to get a probate unless it is not contested or we can challenged by any other legal heir or executor etc. The cost may vary from advocate to advocate and the court fees with other Misc. Expenses . So their is no fixed Charges.

Application
The application for a probate has to be made to the competent court (a pecuniary jurisdiction may require a higher court to issue a probate for high-value immovable assets) through a lawyer or advocate.
Documents
The court usually asks the petitioner to establish the proof of death of the testator, as well as proof that the will has been validly executed by the testator, and that it is the last will and testament of the deceased.
Fees
The court may demand a percentage of the assets as a fee to issue a probate. This, however, is also subject to a ceiling.
Under the Indian Succession Act, a probate can be granted only to the executor appointed under the will.
