Succession Certificate – Hassle-Free Legal Assistance by Reliable Share Solutions Private Limited
When a person passes away without leaving a Will, their legal heirs often face difficulties in claiming assets such as shares, bank deposits, or other securities. In such cases, a Succession Certificate is required from the competent court to establish the rightful ownership and enable the heirs to manage or transfer the assets.
At Reliable Share Solutions Private Limited, we provide end-to-end assistance in obtaining a succession certificate, particularly for cases involving shares, dividends, and other market-linked investments. Our team works closely with you to ensure that the process is handled efficiently, in compliance with the Indian Succession Act, 1925.
What is a Succession Certificate?
A Succession Certificate is a legal document issued by a civil court to the legal heirs of a deceased person, certifying their right to inherit the assets. It also grants them the authority to collect debts and securities due to the deceased. This certificate is typically required when:
- The deceased died intestate (without leaving a Will).
- Banks, companies, or financial institutions demand legal proof before releasing assets.
Importance of a Succession Certificate
- Establishes the rightful heir(s) to the deceased’s assets.
- Required for share transmission in companies and depositories.
- Enables legal heirs to collect dividends, interest, or other entitlements.
- Acts as protection for the payer (bank/company) from future disputes.
Process for Obtaining a Succession Certificate
- Filing a Petition – The legal heir(s) file a petition in the court having jurisdiction over the deceased’s place of residence.
- Submission of Documents – Death certificate, identity proofs, and details of assets are submitted along with the petition.
- Notice to Legal Heirs – The court issues notices to all legal heirs and publishes a public notice in a newspaper.
- Hearing and Verification – If there are no objections, the court proceeds to verify the claim.
- Issuance of Certificate – Once satisfied, the court issues the Succession Certificate, enabling the heirs to claim the assets.
