Draft a clear, structured Indian Last Will and Testament under the Indian Succession Act, 1925 with Executor and 2-Witness attestation blocksโ100% locally in your browser.
| Requirement | Legal Rule in India | Common Mistake to Avoid |
|---|---|---|
| Stamp Paper | Not mandatory (Plain paper Will is 100% valid) | Waiting for stamp paper instead of signing with 2 witnesses |
| Witnesses (Section 63) | Minimum 2 adult witnesses who see the Testator sign | Making a beneficiary or their spouse a witness (voids their bequest!) |
| Registration (Section 18) | Optional at Sub-Registrar office, but recommended for real estate | Not attaching a Doctor's Mental Fitness certificate for senior citizens |
Never! Under Section 67 of the Indian Succession Act, if a beneficiary (or their spouse) signs as an attesting witness, the bequest to that person becomes legally void.
