Quick Summary

This discussion clarifies stamp duty and registration charges for transferring a house from a father to his child. If the child is the sole legal heir, a will might not be strictly necessary, and the focus shifts to the process of transferring ownership. While a will itself incurs registration charges, it may exempt the beneficiary from stamp duty. Expert advice suggests that as the sole heir, the need for a will is questioned, and registration charges will apply regardless of the method of transfer.

When you are the sole legal representative (heir) of your father, as stated by you, what is need for a will ?

You have put a hypothetical query and stated, "if forget the will then what will be the registration and stamp duty charges for transferring that property in my name." It is a vague and imaginary / time pass query.

Another hypothetical / imaginary question posted as "if I go with WILL..."
However, there is no stamp duty but registration charges will have to be paid for registration of a will.
