just see definition of tenant , in rent control act of your state , definition of "tenant" in all acts are almost same.

FOR EXAMPLE
In Rajasthan rent control act "tenant" includes in event of death of the person(tenant) if premises is let out for residential purposes his surviving spouse, son daughter mother and father who had ordinarily residing with him on such premises as member of family up to his death""

Successor to the deceased tenant has only one year time as per the Rent Act. You are suggested to contact a local lawyer from your area so that he can most expeditiously defend your case.
