In India, the probate of a will is governed by the Indian Succession Act, 1925
. According to the Orissa High Court, every petition or caveat made under Chapter XIV of the Act shall set forth the petitioner’s or caveator’s full name, the name of such petitioner’s or caveator’s father, his rank or degree in life, profession, occupation or trade and his true place of residence.
As per India Law Offices, even an unregistered will is valid in India. However, it has to be probated as mentioned above for places like Delhi where it has been made mandatory to probate unregistered wills to execute it.
