Your Aunt has to apply for Legal Heir Certificate. She has to produce the copy of her husband's death certificate along with the Application. In the Application all the heirs of the deceased has to be indicated. There will be a form for this purpose. This can be obtained from the Tehasildar's office (or Sub-Divisional Magistrate's office, if it is falling under Ahmedabad Municipality). After making necessary enquiries, the Tehasildar or SDM will grant a Legal Heir Certificate indicating all the legal heirs of the deceased. If your Aunt happens to be a lone Legal Heir, then in that case, on the basis of the Legal Heir Certificate, she can apply for change of her name in the mutation records and it will be done. Thereafter only her name will appear as Owner of the building.
