NALINI NAVIN BHAGWATI vs CHANDRAVADAN M. MEHTA

The Supreme Court addressed the issue of whether an application for revocation of probate under Section 263 of the Indian Succession Act, 1925 can be treated as a suit under Section 295 of the Act. The Court held that while the High Court's direction to treat the application as a suit was correct, the revocation application should be considered based on the grounds specified in Section 263, allowing for a summary or full-dress inquiry. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the High Court's order.
