You can get legal heir certificate from local tehsildar / designated authority.

i am told legal heir certificate from tehsildar is not valid i will have to get one from the court only

Succession certificate from court is required in respect of movable property. In respect of immovable property, legal heir certificate is the requisite document.

By the way, is the son the only child.

sir,

is a heirship certificate an authentic document to prove you are a legal heir of the deceased by proving your relationship to the deceased by producing documents.
