4. She has invited my attention to a copy of the Will in respect of which Letters of Administration were granted and pointed out that the said flat was bequeathed only to the daughters of the deceased, namely, Vinal Dilip Bharvani and Sunita Harjani, in equal shares.
5. She submits that, due to inadvertence, the name of Mahesh Doulatram Harjani was also included in the Schedule of assets against the said flat. She has also placed before me the Consent Affidavits of the children of the deceased, namely, Mahesh Doulatram Harjani, Vinal Dilip Bharvani and Sunita Harjani, stating that they have no objection to the Grant being amended in terms of the reliefs sought in the present Interim Application.
6. Having heard learned counsel, perused the Interim Application and noted that there is no objection to the amendment sought, I am inclined to allow the Interim Application in terms of prayer clauses (a) and (b), which read thus:
“(a.) The Hon'ble Court be pleased to allow an amendment to Schedule I of the Petition in accordance with the draft Schedule 1 of Amendment annexed hereto and marked as Exhibit - D (b.) The office of Prothonotary and Senior Master of High Court Bombay be
directed to accept the Original Grant dated 30.09.2022 and to issue amended Grant in terms of the amended Schedule - I of the Petition;”

disposed of.
