Writing a will

Can a WILL be written and registered on a undivided property with Minor shareholder without the knowledge of the minor/his guardian



Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether a will can be written and registered for undivided property involving a minor shareholder without their guardian's knowledge. While a testator cannot bequeath a minor's existing share, they can certainly write a will to bequeath their own undivided share of the property.

The testator cannot bequeath by a Will the share of a minorshareholder, however the testator can very well write a Will bequeathing his/her undivided share alone out of the property.
