Will

My father passed away on March 29th , 2018. In 2017, he made a handwritten will on plain paper with his signature and stamp alongwith signature of two witnesses ( neighbors). However, he also made an old notarised will in 2013 which is with my dad's sisters. Will you please guide me on which 'will' will be valid? The new will on the plain paper or old notarized will.

Will is a non testamentary instrument made by Testator. Testator during the lifetime can make any number if wills. However only the Last will made shall be valid and in your case on my the Will made in 29.03.2018 is valid in eye of law.Registration of will is options.

LAST VALID WILL prevails.

It is not mandatory to register or notarize the WILL.

The WILL should just be valid.

And LAST VALID WILL prevails.

The testator must have narrated in the WILL that IT is the last WILL.

last will is valid one.
