My grand father had two sons and a daughter. he had executed a will in the form of notary ( it was not registered). on the basis of notary the properties were divided between the two sons and they were enjoying those properties from the past 9 years. and some of the properties were given for his grand children ( children of his two sons).

recently his daughter had mentioned in a notice belonging to a bank account, that she had not given any share in the will.


Even some already existed nationalized banks in our properties accepted the will and they also executed a fresh lease with us after the sudden death of my grand father. 

does she had a right to oppose the will?

she got married 48 years back and very well settled.

All the properties were ancestral.

registration of will is not necessary.she does not have any right to oppose if the property given by your grand father was a self acquired property not an ancestral property

your grand father made will in 2005 in respect of ancestral property . your aunt also had share in said property . your grand father could not bequeath entire property by will he could only bequeath his share of ancestral property .

Your aunt has a definite share in the property as the same is ancestral in nature. Your grand father could not have made the will the effect of which was to deprive your aunt of her proprietary rights.
