Everything You Need to Know About Writing a Will in India

A Will is a record of someone’s jail pronouncement regarding the disposition of his property following his death. It is an individual document that has an influence on someone’s death and allows you to make an informed decision about how your money, assets, and valuables will be distributed after your death.

Will is a jail record, but there is no set format for it because it may be scrawled or typed on any record and is no longer limited to stamp paper. A Will can be canceled or changed by the owner at any point prior to his or her death.

There are two types of wills, according to the India Succession Act: privileged and unprivileged wills.

Privileged Wills are those that are created with the assistance of squaddies recruited on a day excursion or in a war-like situation, or an airman or mariner. These types of will no longer require many formalities and can be made either in writing or orally.

Unprivileged Wills are all different kinds of Wills, and during the execution of those Wills, a slew of formalities must be completed, from signature verification to witness attestation.

We will generally address unprivileged wills in this post.
