Succession Rules applicable to Indian Christians
The law that lays down the rules of distribution of property of a Christian dying intestate (without making a Will), is the Indian Succession Act, 1925 (ISA).
The Indian Succession Act, 1865, Cochin Christian Succession Act, 1921, Travancore Christian Succession Act, 1916 etc applicable to Christians in the past were repealed and consolidated into ISA.
