What happens to a house if someone passes away without a will? Do all legal heirs need to be present to get a legal heir certificate? I’m a Hindu, so I need specific details about this process.

In India, if a Hindu dies intestate (without a will), their property, including the house, is distributed amongst their legal heirs according to the Hindu Succession Act, 1956. While all legal heirs must be identified for inheritance, their presence is not always required to obtain a legal heir certificate. The certificate can be obtained by presenting the required documents and proving your relationship to the deceased.
