While it is a great idea to write a will, most women don’t write a will despite having property in their names. In this answer, I will tell you who are legal heirs of deceased in India.
In case a woman dies without a will, the property will go in this order:
In Case of General Properties(self-acquired or those received via settlement, will, gift, etc.)
1) Firstly to daughters and sons, including kids of any pre-deceased daughter and son, and the husband;
2) Next, to the husband’s heirs;
3) Then, to the father and mother;
4) Next, to the father’s heirs; and
5) Finally, to the mother’s heirs.
In the Case of Inherited PropertiesIf the property is inherited from her father-in-law or husband, it goes, in the absence of children, to the heirs of the husband.
If the property is inherited from her parents, it goes, in the absence of children, to the heirs of the father.
Now you know who are all the legal heirs of a deceased person (widow without kids).
