Grandfather having a pension account without nominee
His son is deceased. If grandfather dies will his widow of predeceased son can claim for pension account
You should get in touch with a lawyer in this case
If a person (not married) dies without making a Will. He has 2 sisters, 1 brother (not alive) and also 3 step sisters and 1 step brother. What are the rights of these brothers and sisters in his property i.e. Fixed deposit in a bank.
I think you need to consult a lawyer for this .
@elaya kumar s.
thank you very much for your precise reply!
1. If anybody acquires a property by a will, assuming he gets regular income from the property, then that income has to be added to his income for getting his tax liability. If in future, he disposes of the asset inherited under the will, then the question of capital gains tax will arise. Apart from this as per the existing laws no separate taxes are payable to the Government. The same holds good in case of intestate succession also (when a person dies without executing a will).
2. In case of transfer of property, either by will or by inheritance, no stamp duty is payable as in the case of transfer by sale.
3. For name transfer in such a case, the person has to apply with the legal heirship certificate along with the consent letter signed by all other legal heirs giving their consent for name transfer in govt. records.
