If you would like to obtain legal heirship certificate, you may have to approach the concerned revenue authorities within the jurisdiction where the deceased is reported to have resided one year continuously for at least one year prior to death.

The application should contain the particulars of all the legal heirs of the deceased and to be signed by all of them.

Attach the death certificate and identity proof if the deceased along with application.

If there has been no Will left by the deceased then there's no question of probate.

It would be considered as intestate succession

For Succession Certificate you can apply for the process in the court and get the certificate.

 

If WILL is not registered then probate is performed if any family members or SRO take objection on WILL otherwise not.
