Hi 

1) We do not have concept of probate in courts at Andhra and Telangana as probate of will is done only if property is in chennai, mumbai, calcutta and delhi.

2) We have some thing called letter of administration (this is applicable only when there are no disputes between the legal heirs).

3) If there are other legal heirs who have contesting claims, then the parties have to

a) file a partition suit and 

b) Prove the evidence by calling the witnesses to testify that the will was made by executor with no undue coercion and influence.

4) Court fees will depend on the sub-registrar office value of the property 

Hope this information is useful.

 - As per the Section 212(2) of the Indian Succession Act, 1925, Hindus, Muslims, etc. are not bound to apply for letters of administration (Probate , and it is optional and not mandatory for these persons to seek probate of the Will.

- However, Probate establishes the genuineness of WILL , and it stops future disputes.

- Further, as per the Section 222 of the Indian Succession Act, 1925, Probate shall be granted only to an Executor appointed by the Will, and in the absence of the Executor being named in the Will, the Legatees or the Beneficiaries under the WILL could also seek probate of the Will.  

- The following documents are need:-

  • Original Will of the deceased , including death certificate 
  • Title Deeds pertaining to the immovable property mentioned in the Will, if any.
  • Documents pertaining to the movables, mentioned in the Will, if any.

-  Further, for probate , registration of WILL is not mandatory .

Probate is optional and unregistered WILL is valid if duly attested by 2 witness. Until objection not raise or asked by any department, don't apply for probate. Waste of time and money.

Court fees 2% of asset.

The probate proceedings may be instituted either in the court of District Judge or in the High Court.

The expense involved may depend upon number of heirs; and the nature of dispute/contest. The expense should be considerably less if the will is not contested.
