As soon as it comes to your knowledge, you must challenge the will. Unregistered wills are highly vulnerable document and susceptible to challenge. Unregistered will is considered to be highly suspicious and treated so in court of law. Take one to one detail expert opinion.

A will is a declaration by a deceased made during the life time to be in effect after demise. Hence in theory a will is enforceable upon demises of the testator and valid till eternity.

However a validity of will can be challenged within 12 yrs of it becoming enforceable (death of testator). So an argument can be made that a will becomes absolute after 12 yes from the death of the testator.
