Executors for joint Will by a couple

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 12 August 2010 This query is : Resolved 
Pl. clear our following doubts:

1) Can excutors be beneficiary as well in a Will. We have two married daughters and we wish to name them as joint excutor and beneficiary of our estate on our death ?

2) Will it be necessary to have probate in such will as our daughters are the only beneficiaries in the Will and there is no dispute what so evsr ?

Ans. Probate is for confirming the execution of the will. There is no time limit for Probate of will, however, in order to put future issues at rest it is advisable to obtain probate so that the will shall not be disputed.

All the above ld. Advocates R right provided U R not a Muslim.
In your case, if U R a Hindu U R best advised not to execute a Will as, even in case of intestacy,your two married daughters will automatically inherit your property.
