Though will is not registered it is valid document, if anyone objects, then you have to get probate from the court....

Registering a WILL is not mandatory. Though not regd, it is a valid document. You would have to probate the WILL in the High Court. If there is no dispute and all beneficiaries agree, you should be able to obtain a probate from HC within a span of 6 months.

however, if there is an objection, thenthe Probate petition would convert itself into a suit and would take donkey years for it to be heard.

What does that will say?  Is it agreeable to all?  If agreeable, no dispute,  you will hv to probate the will.  If there is a dispute, then as rightly said by our colleague it will take doney years.
