What Is Will Registration in Mumbai?

Will registration is the process of recording your Will with the Sub Registrar under the Registration Act 1908. Registration is optional in India, and an unregistered Will is legally valid, but a registered Will carries an official government record of its existence and execution.

In Mumbai, Wills are registered at the Sub Registrar offices under the Maharashtra Department of Registration and Stamps. WillJini manages the preparation, the appointment and the formalities end to end.

When Should You Register Your Will

Registration is most valuable when the official record itself adds protection.

Common situations include:

  • Family circumstances where a challenge to the Will is possible
  • Property or assets spread across branches of the family
  • Senior citizens who want the strongest record of their wishes
  • NRIs who want their Indian Will formally recorded during a visit
  • A new Will replacing an earlier one, where a clear record avoids doubt

What the Will Registration Service Covers

The service completes every step between a finished Will and its registered record.

This may include:

  • Review of the Will, or fresh lawyer drafting where needed
  • Preparation of the document set for the Sub Registrar
  • Confirmation of the current government fee and requirements
  • Booking the appointment at a convenient Sub Registrar office in Mumbai
  • Guidance through the visit, identity verification and formalities

I availed of Willjini's POA vetting service. The onboarding and initial connect with the core team was facilitated and supported by Adv. Shweta Ma'am. Details of professional fees were communicated upfront. No hidden costs. Adv. Manisha Ma'am guided me initially, providing vital technical inputs for key decision making. That helped a lot in determing a course of action and appropriate solution for my unqiue requirements. Adv. Riddhi Ma'am helped with reviewing the initial POA draft that I had prepared. The vetting process was thorough and meticulous. A significantly overhauled draft was shared with me and subsequently finalized after taking my inputs and recommendations. I required additional inputs at the time of registration that was further supported by Adv. Manisha and Adv. Riddhi. The registration process was ultimately successful and the POA is ready for pickup. I am grateful to the entire Willjini team for their inputs, guidance and support.

I walked into their office without prior appointment and was attended by Mr.Devvrat Unadkat promptly. He explained with clarity the procedure for drafting a will and also handed over a checklist.

I was assigned a team comprising a Advocate Alpana Rathi and Sucheta Bajaj. From the first meeting with Mr.Devvrat to drafting the will through whatsapp and email by Advocate Alpana and completing the registration formalities by Ms.Sucheta everything went smoothly. The whole team was efficient and professional and with their expertise I am relieved of finalizing and registering the will.

I would highly recommend to my family and friends.

I reached out to them because I needed a will drafted urgently for a house transfer, and I’m honestly so glad I chose them. The team really stepped up. Everything moved quickly and smoothly, but what I appreciated most was how well they communicated throughout the whole process. They kept me updated at every stage without me ever having to follow up. I told them I was in a rush, and they genuinely took that on board — no excuses, no delays, just solid work and a team effort. They got everything done on time and handled it all with care and professionalism. Really grateful for their help and would happily recommend them.

I am pleased to share my experience with Willjinni Service Trust. I have established two Family Private Trusts through Willjinni and found their team to be highly professional and supportive. They guided me through every step of the process, from the initial setup to the pre- and post-registration of the Trust Deeds. I strongly recommend Willjinni to anyone considering setting up a Family Trust.
Thanks to Shweta, Sucheta, Srishti and Alpana for your support and assistance given through out the assignment .

Asked Questions

No. Registration of a Will is optional under the Registration Act 1908. An unregistered Will remains legally valid if it is signed by the testator and attested by two witnesses. Registration adds an official record of the Will with the government.

A Will is registered at a Sub Registrar office, under the Maharashtra Department of Registration and Stamps (IGR Maharashtra). Under the Registration Act a Will can be presented at any Sub Registrar office, at any time, and WillJini arranges the appointment at an office convenient to you.

The registration fee for a Will in Maharashtra is Rs 100, with a document handling charge of Rs 20 per page, paid at the Sub Registrar office. WillJini confirms the current charges and requirements before your appointment, so there are no surprises on the day.

Yes. During the lifetime of the testator, the Will is presented for registration by the testator. After the death of the testator, a person claiming under the Will can present it for registration subject to the conditions of the Registration Act. WillJini coordinates the appointment and the process either way.

Witnesses are part of the registration formalities. Our team confirms exactly who needs to be present for your appointment and prepares everyone for what the office will ask.

Yes. Many NRIs register their Indian Will during a visit to India. WillJini completes the drafting and preparation in advance so the registration is done within your stay.

No. You can always make a new Will or a codicil later, and a later valid Will prevails over an earlier one. The new document can be registered in the same way.

A registered Will has an official record with the registration office, which makes disputes about its existence or signature much harder to raise. Maharashtra also allows a Will to be deposited in a sealed cover with the Joint District Registrar for safe custody, and WillJini advises when that option is useful.

Typically the final Will document, identity and address proof, photographs, and the witnesses required for the formalities. WillJini gives you the exact checklist for your appointment.

WillJini is a succession services company. The drafting of the Will and its registration are handled by one team, from the first draft to the Sub Registrar appointment, so nothing falls between two advisors.
