Will Drafting & Will Registration in Maharashtra
Clear. Legally Valid. Future-Proof for Your Family.
At Kaydamantra Consultancy Services, we help you draft a legally sound Will, guide you through correct execution with witnesses, and assist with optional registration at the Sub-Registrar / Registrar office in Maharashtra. We also guide on deposit/safe custody of the Will (sealed cover) where applicable.
What is a Will?
A Will is a legal declaration of a person’s intention regarding the distribution of their property after death. A correctly executed Will helps avoid disputes and makes the transfer of assets smoother for the family.
A Will should be signed by the testator and attested by two or more witnesses as per Section 63 of the Indian Succession Act, 1925.
No. Registration of a Will is optional under Section 18 of the Registration Act, 1908. However, many families choose registration for stronger evidentiary value and safe record.
Who Should Make a Will?
- Property owners (flat/plot/ancestral property share)
- People with multiple assets: bank accounts, FD, shares, mutual funds
- Families wanting clear distribution and guardianship instructions
- Senior citizens, NRIs, business owners
- Anyone who wants to avoid future disputes
Safe custody option
