Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed the validity of multiple Wills concerning the estate of Kamal Kumar Mitra, specifically examining the legal implications of unregistered leases and the rights of executors under a Will as per Section 213 of the Indian Succession Act, 1925. The Court held that the executors appointed under the Will have the authority to manage the estate and that the unregistered lease does not confer any rights that would supersede the provisions of the Will. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the High Court's decision to appoint an Administrator pendente lite.
