Sir there is no time limit for probate of the will you can do it when you wish but it is better you do it as soon as possible.
no time limit for applying for probate . since there were no disputes you did not apply for probate . preferbaly probate application should be made within 3 years . you have to satisfactory explain the resaons why you delayed filing application for probate .
There is no specific limitation period as such
But generally the later the probate application is made, the more suspicion is raised by court
Although the high court original side rules do prescribe a time within which probate petition has to be filed, but in many cases its not followed
Its been 3 years since the person died. So you must immediately apply for probate
There is no time limit of probation but it's better for you to file application for probate as early as possible
If you delaying then you need to give satisfactory reason for delay
The time limit is 3 years.
However the same can be condoned by means of an application.
Get the same probated at the earliest.

1. Typically there is no time limit to probate a will. However, in one case, the SC has stated that 30 years from knowledge of existence will.
