My Grandfather dies intestate in 2011. At the time of his death below mentioned are the legal heirs.
1.Son 2 Nos. 2.Daughters 2 Nos. 3.Wife ( Widow)
He inherited ancestral property. As per HSA the same is distributed within above mentioned legal heirs in equal share.
Now, my query is can my Grand Mother ( Widow as mentioned above of my Grand father) make a will of her property received by her as above in favor of me (Grandson)?
Yes, a Hindu grandmother can absolutely make a will leaving her property, including her share of ancestral property inherited after her husband's death, to her grandson. She has the legal right to bequeath her assets to whomever she wishes. Alternatively, she could also consider executing a gift deed to transfer the property.
