Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court held that the will dated 24.9.1986 executed by Singaravelu Nayagar was valid, overturning the Madras High Court's Division Bench decision which had set aside the Single Judge's ruling. The Court emphasized that the Division Bench failed to properly consider the factors that led the Single Judge to determine the will was genuine. The matter was remanded for fresh consideration, ensuring all relevant facts and evidence are evaluated. The appeal was allowed without costs.
