Surviving Member Certificate
"Your final step, make it count with flawless execution."
What Is Surviving Member Certificate?
A Surviving Member Certificate is an official document issued by the local revenue authority or municipal body certifying the list of legal heirs surviving after the death of a property owner. This certificate is essential for establishing the legal heirs' right to inherit and transfer the deceased's immovable property, bank accounts, and other assets. Under the Indian Succession Act 1925 and the Hindu Succession Act 1956, the surviving member certificate serves as preliminary evidence of the family tree and legal heirship, although a formal Succession Certificate or Probate may be required for high-value assets. The process involves submitting the death certificate, family tree documentation, and an affidavit before the Tehsildar or Competent Authority, who verifies the claims and issues the certificate.
