Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the application of Section 302 of the Indian Succession Act, 1925, in the context of a dispute over a Will executed in 1963. The Court held that the probate granted to the respondents was valid despite the existence of a family arrangement altering the terms of the Will, as the parties had consented to the changes. The Court emphasized that the agreement's terms governed the rights and obligations of the parties, leading to the dismissal of the appeal against the probate order.
