Indian succession takes over when a property owner passes away
without leaving a will specifying how to divide their belongings. Now,
the issue of what function it serves and when it was implemented in
India enters our minds.

INTRODUCTION

3. The Indian Succession Act
of 1925: What is it?
The Indian Succession Act was enacted,
as was previously mentioned in the
introduction, to resolve conflicts that arise
when a family head passes away without
making a will. In actuality, it says that
under the Indian Succession Act of 1925,
the property shall be shared equally
among all of the successors if the
breadwinner or the property owner passes
away without leaving a will for his heirs.

4. IS THE 1925 INDIAN
SUCCESSION ACT
MODIFIED?
Yes, there have been some changes
to Act No. 26 of 2002, as far as we
know. For example, in 2002, a
modification was made to Section 213,
removing the word "Muhammadans"
and replacing it with "Indian
Christians."

that has been verified by a court's seal of
