You can prepare the Will and visit the jurisdictional sub registrar office,  comply with stamp duty procedures and get it registered.

Dear Client,

List down all your assets including property, savings, investments, etc., and decide who you want to inherit. Then choose an executor (this is the person responsible for ensuring that your wishes are carried out as per your will. It could be a family member, friend, or even a professional executor). You can prepare your will with consultation with the advocate in accordance with the law. Review the will carefully. Ensure it accurately reflects your wishes and there are no ambiguities. You'll need witnesses to sign your will to make it legally valid. While it is not mandatory to register will in all places, registering your will can provide additional security and prevent disputes later on. Check with your local government or a legal advisor about the process and cost of registering your will. It may involve submitting the document to a government office or registry along with a nominal fee.

ohh this appears to be a command rather than a query

if you want to avoid 'super high cost' then you can skip registering the Will

a Will is NOT required to be registered under the law

my professional fee for drafting a Will is Rs. 7000/- only

now i do not know whether this 7k is 'super high' for you or not

1. Registration of WILL is not mandatory but is only optional. Unregistered WILL will have the same validity as that of a registered WILL.

2.  The Stamp duty and registration charges for WILL would be nominal charges. In Karnataka it's less than Rs. 1000/--.

Execution of Will is not tough but need to follow the prevailing laws for valid execution of WILL. I have good expertise in succession/inheritance/probate/testamentary succession.

- As per law, the registration of a Will is not mandatory , and it can be written on a paper as well in the presence of two witnesses. 

- Hence, you can write a Will in the presence of two witnesses without an expenditure

- Further, you can register the same before the office of the sub-registrar , 

- A Will doesn't attract stamp duty. A nominal fee is payable for registration which is approximately Rs100 in Maharashtra.
