An affidavit stating the legal heirs is enough though succession certificate is preferred.
Secession certificate is generally issued within six months of application.
1. Since the father died intestate, his wife and all the children are entitled to equal share in the property.
2. As per your narration the Sons' of the deceased person are selling the property to you. If their mother is also not alive and the Sons' do not have any other sibling, then they shall have Absolute right to sell the property to you. In case they have sister/sisters, the sisters are also entitled to equal share. Ask for certified Family/Genealogical Tree from the Seller/S to get to know if any other person/S are entitled to any right over the property.
Sir , What is process to get letter of administration from court? What will be expense for process? Should they go to lawyer? which documents needs to submit? Their mother is no more ,they are 3 brothers? Bank asked me to get legal heirship from court? is it enough for home loan?? Thanks & Regards Irshaad!

3) mention name of the legal heirs of the deceased
4) pay court fees as per valuation of property
5) legal heirs have to contact lawyer for obtaining LA it woukd take 6 months
6) even fir obtaining legal heir ship certificate petition has to be filed in district court
They require the original title deed and the death certificate of parents. If a legal heir certificate has been obtained by them then it is icing on the cake. Succession Certificate is required for only movable assets. Before purchasing the property you should conduct due diligence in the office of sub-registrar to ensure that the title of the property is free and marketable.
