Firstly, how you are coming to know the registered will by the fag end of 2009 when your father died in 2006? Did you know from before about the will executed by your father? was the will registered without your knowledge? if so, Why it was kept secret from you till today or did you know the will from before? Registration is no proof of the execution of the documents in view of section 57 to 60 of the Evidence Act. If there is any suspicious grounds and reasons surrounding the will bring it to the notice of the Court how and why, but you must make a clear distinction where suspicion are well founded and a case where there are only suspicion.

A registered  WILL can be challenged and disproved in a Court of Law, by adducing evidence sufficient to prove that your father had no intention to execute the said WILL. The evidence of attestors & scribe needs to be shaked and disproved also. It all depends on the physical and mental health condition of testator, necessity for execution and other discrepancies in contents of the WILL.

You can challange a registered WILL in the court. You can also request for forensic test report of the registered WILL.

 Challenging a will, registered or not registered, is common, disapproving its contents quite a different proposition. Time lag in its execution/probate has no consequence.
