Why you need it

When you need it

Contemporaneous medical evidence where age, illness, medication or family conflict could put capacity in question. S.59, Indian Succession Act, 1925 ties capacity to sound mind — a doctor records observations, not a legal determination. State exam date/time, identity basis, orientation, context, and only the supported opinion; never certify validity, never use a full Aadhaar copy. The will still needs execution and two witnesses (s.63).

What follows is written for Punjab and Chandigarh. It states the position there rather than describing how it varies, so the amounts below are the ones that apply — worth confirming at the sub-registrar’s office, because rates change. If the property is anywhere else in India, none of this is yours.
