    This episode was good, but one thing is missing in it. Muslims under their law have several restrictions in making a will. You may have one more episode to cover this. I am a Chartered accountant practising for the last 39 years on consultancy, drafting and litigation side and am based in Ahmedabad

    A letter of Administration instead of a probate can be obtained from a high court . The family of the diseased who are the beneficiary can approach the court , when no executor is appointed in the will.

    Very useful information we'll presented. Thanks. Do even persons with single child and all assets on joint basis or nominations in place a Will is still required?

    • @nikhilvarg
      @nikhilvarg ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, as per Indian laws, a nominee is only a trustee, i.e. a nominee only holds assets on behalf of the beneficiary. Following the demise, the nominee does not become the rightful owner. Instead, a nominee will only act as the trustee of the assets until the legal heir(s) is/are established as per the Will or as per the applicable Succession Laws in the absence of a Will. For a Hindu male, the succession laws provides equal distribution of assets to mother, spouse and child and this overrides the nomination if there is no Will.

      Your interest/share in joint property have to be seperately captured in a Will. While you can create a joint Will it always recommended and advantageous to create separate Wills to capture wishes for your share in the joint property.

  • @bharatpopat9835
    @bharatpopat9835 ปีที่แล้ว

    A couple of other issues (in addition to my earlier comment) to be considered are that it is always better to get will registered under section 18 of the Registration Act, 1908 (in Guharat, it just costs Rs.500). The will can be so registered even after the demise of the writer of the will. Further, probate in case of will is required only in Maharashtra, West Bengal and Tamilnadu (if the deceased was residing in any of these states or if he had some properties there) and nowhere else. The law is clear and there is a direct judgment of Supreme Court on this as well.

    WILL is so so important. I am dealing with death of my wifes cousin who came to my house as a guest and unfortunately passed away with a sudden cardiac arrest when taking a shower. I am trying to recover his assets in USA and pass it on to his wife in India. Since he did not have beneficiary in bank/trading accounts, I am running from pillar to post in probate court. Attorneys send crazy bills and charge even to reply to emails. Their charges run into more than 5 thousand dollars just to unlock bank account of the deceased. He was just 33 years and looked totally healthy. Life is very unpredictable. Please do not procrastinate writing a WILL

Life is uncertain, it is only prudent to be prepared for the worst and you can now check this box by just setting aside 10 minutes from your schedule at the comfort of your home.

    Tax issues in case of large assets needs to be addressed. Additional information. e.g. how much cash can be held at home. How much gold.
    Married woman can have 500 grams gold., Unmarried daughter 250 gram per daughter. 100 gram gold for each male.
    In view of the change of circumstances according to Supreme Court of U.K your will is not your will any more. This will be applicable to in India as well if not now but in some test case.
    A rich British lady gave all her assets in animal charity without giving a single penny to her own daughter for personal reasons . May be a daughter is not getting well with mother. A daughter was dependent upon govt benefits. She took up the matter at the highest level Supreme Court of U.K.
    Supreme court cancelled the will by providing substantial very big 7 figures amount to the daughter on background that GOVT must not bear the cost of looking after daughter with a large assets to animal charity. Such isshe can arise in future in India as well.
    A will needs to be signed by the will MAKER with two witness at the same time without leaving the room for any reasons to avoid any challenge in future.

Is it mandatory? If executor is not mentioned a will is valid? (3) Pls. provide the relevant section & act details which does not mandator registration of will? (4) whether the printout has to be taken on stamp paper or even on A4 sheet is enough? (5) If the beneficiary as per the will is different from a nominee as per bank records for a financial asset who will be the final beneficiary?

    • @nareshkumarbhatt
      @nareshkumarbhatt ปีที่แล้ว

      You cannot make seperate wills. Executor is not mandatory but advisable. Will registration is not compulsory but strongly recommended to get it registered as it will be very easy to transmit assets to the beneficiaries as per the will. Preferably stamp paper as the life of a stamp paper is much more than a4 paper and will look more authentic. Final beneficiary will be name on will. Nominated person will get max 1 lakh only.

    • @nikhilvarg
      @nikhilvarg ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Point 1 - Not recommended
      Point 2 - An Executor is a person who is nominated by the Testator to carry out the instructions as per the Will. An Executor should be above 18 years of age. Your Executor can be any trusted person like a family friend, spouse, children, lawyer, CA or any professional, who can be relied upon to execute your Will. You should always seek the consent of the person you nominate as your Executor to avoid the potential of him/her declining the responsibility of acting as an Executor after your demise. If no executor is nominated family will have to approach courts for executor appointment and therefore, advisable to nominate an executor
      Point 3 - Section 18 in The Registration Act, 1908
      Point 4 - No format prescribed and will can be executed on simple A4 paper.
      Point 5 - As per Indian laws, a nominee is only a trustee, i.e. a nominee only holds assets on behalf of the beneficiary. Following the demise, the nominee does not become the rightful owner. Instead, a nominee will only act as the trustee of the assets until the legal heir(s) is/are established as per the Will or as per the applicable Succession Laws in the absence of a Will.

    1. Should the addresses of the beneficiary NRI children be given in the Will. 2. Should the address of the beneficiary NRI children in the Will be that of their parents in India ( as NRI children stay with parents while in India) or that of address outside of India, so that the subsequent transfer of fixed assets such as residential apartment and residential plot in India to NRI children and transfer of funds such as MFs and Bank accounts to NRI children outside India are smooth and tax efficient in India and USA afterwards. 3. What would be the tax implications on inheritance.

    • @nikhilvarg
      @nikhilvarg ปีที่แล้ว +1

      1. Recommended but not mandatory
      2. Better to capture the address as per their KYC documents
      3. Currently, there are no tax implication in Indian on inheritance. However, implication in US needs to be evaluated basis you residential/ domicile status. Please reach out to team for more information in this regard.

    Very good informative video. However, from my personal experience, alongwith 2 witnesses the will has to be attested by a medical practitioner that the will maker is in position to understand contents of the will.

    • @nikhilvarg
      @nikhilvarg ปีที่แล้ว +2

      You are right.. The choice of witness should be someone who can standup for the family if called upon by courts. Do note that role of Witness comes into play only if the Will is challenged or the Will is required to be proved before the court. In normal circumstances, where there is no challenge or need to prove the Will before the courts, the witness have no role in actual execution of Will (i.e. with the actual asset transfer process).

      While you can have one Will for global assets, assets situated in foreign countries are governed by local laws in those countries and the procedure to enforce a Will in such countries could be different from that of India. Therefore, it is advisable to prepare separate Wills for each jurisdiction to avoid any delay or hassles in the transfer of assets to the beneficiaries.
