sir,
as per my knowledge his heirs cant claim because the deceasd person doesnot posses an licence.with out having valid licence the claim is not maintainable

But it is not the fault of legal heirs. I hope there are enough precedents which our practicing experts can cull out and post in this forum for the benefit of Mr.Bhatt
