IN THE GOODS OF:
KALPANA MITRA, DECEASED
BEFORE:
The Hon’ble JUSTICE OM NARAYAN RAI Date: August 17, 2026.
Appearance: Mr. Kanai Lal Mondal, Adv. …for the petitioner
The Court: This is an application for grant of probate of the last Will and Testament dated December 8, 2021 left behind by the above named deceased. The testatrix died issueless. The husband of the testatrix pre- deceased her. The persons who could have succeeded to the estate of the deceased, if the testatrix had died intestate, have been described in paragraph 5 of the application. Since, the petitioner was unaware of the whereabouts of the said persons, this Court had by an order dated May 22, 2025 directed issuance of general citation and publication of special citation once in The Telegraph and once in Bartaman. The department has issued a No Caveat Certificate indicating that despite issuance of citation and publication of special citation, no caveat
2 has been entered against the grant of probate of the said Will and Testament. The Will has been proved in common form by one of the attesting witnesses. Having regard to the above and since, this file has been placed before this Court by the Registrar Insolvency for grant, upon complete scrutiny by the department, therefore, considering the view of the department, application for grant of probate is allowed, by passing orders in terms of prayer (d) of the application. PLA/335/2024 stands disposed of.
