                r/w. Order XXV Rule 5 of O.S.Rules, seeking Letters of Administration with the

                Will annexed, to the plaintiffs as sisters / beneficiaries under the Will of the

                                  For Plaintiff(s):         M/s.V.Balasubramanian


                                  For Defendant(s):         Ms.R.V.Gayathri
                                                            for M/s.P.B.Ramanujam


                                                          JUDGMENT

This Testamentary Original Suit has been filed seeking Letters of

Administration with the Will annexed may be granted to the plaintiffs as sisters /

beneficiaries under the Will of the deceased to have effect throughout the State of

Tamil Nadu.

2. The plaintiff has filed an Original Petition in O.P.No.714 of 2017

claiming Letters of Administration in respect of the Will dated 04.01.2003. Since

the defendant had filed a caveat and objected the same, the Original Petition has

been converted into Testamentary Original Suit.

https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis ( Uploaded on: 18/11/2025 04:34:06 pm )

3. The facts pleaded in the plaint filed by the plaintiffs in brief:

The testatrix by name K.S.Padmini was a permanent resident of Chennai.

She had properties within Tamil Nadu. However, she died at Gurgaon, where she

was residing temporarily during her last days. The Will dated 04.01.2003 was

the last Will executed by the deceased K.S.Padmini at Chennai in the presence of

the witnesses. There is no executor appointed by the testatrix. The parents of the

testatrix had pre-deceased her long ago. The testatrix died leaving behind the

plaintiffs who are her sisters and the defendant who is her husband. She had no

child born out of the marriage with the defendant. In the Will dated 04.01.2003,

the testatrix had bequeathed the whole of the suit property in favour of the

plaintiffs with whom she was living.

4. The averments made in written statement of the defendant in brief:

The signature on the said Will appears to be the signature of the deceased

wife of the defendant. However, in all probabilities and likelihood, the signature

in a blank paper has been used to create the alleged Will. The marriage between

the deceased and the defendant has been solemnised on 15.02.2002 only. So,

there was absolutely no necessity for the wife of the defendant to execute such a

Will, that too, within one year from the date of her marriage. The Will does not

https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis ( Uploaded on: 18/11/2025 04:34:06 pm ) even disclose that the deceased was married at the time when the Will was

executed. No reason has been set out for the necessity of the Will at such a

young age of 34 years. No reason has been stated for the alleged Will for blanket

disposition in favour of her sisters who have already got married and settled well.

The witnesses of the Will were none other than the father of the testatrix and

husband of one of the beneficiaries, the second plaintiff herein. Even the

description of the property is also not mentioned in the Will. There is also no

mention about the scribe of the Will. Incidentally, all the three sisters have

similar handwriting and style of writing. Nowhere in the Will, it is stated that it is

a holograph Will. The testatrix lived with the defendant for nearly 14 years after

her marriage and there is no reason to exclude him from inheritance. The

deceased K.S.Padmini had health setback only in the year 2011 when she was

diagnosed with cancer and it was the defendant who took care of the deceased at

that time at Pune. Due to the treatment requirement, she was shifted to Chennai

in the year 2014 as it was felt that the testatrix would get better support in

Chennai. The Will is not a genuine one. Hence, the suit should be dismissed.

5. The facts pleaded in the rejoinder submitted by the plaintiffs are as

https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis ( Uploaded on: 18/11/2025 04:34:06 pm ) follows:

The suspicion raised by the defendant about the Will is unwarranted. In

fact, one of the attestors is a retired I.A & A.S Officer of the CAG with an

impeccable records of service. The genesis for the Will arose after her marriage

to the defendant in the year 2002. The Will was executed by the testatrix to

protect the interest of her aged father in view of the aggressive demands made by

the defendant demanding dowry and properties. The testatrix refused to yield to

such demands and she started to believe that her husband and his family were

only after her father's wealth. Hence, she was constrained to write out a Will

bequeathing all her properties and assets to her two sisters. So that, the same

remains within her family. That is the reason why the Will has been executed by

her when she was very young and immediately after her marriage. She intended

that her family properties should remain in her family as they are ancestral and

self-earned.

5.1. In the very first line of the Will itself, the description of the testatrix

has been made in such a way that she was a married women. She was going

through a painful period after her marriage because of the greedy behaviour of

her husband. Though the properties were in the father's name, she realised that

https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis ( Uploaded on: 18/11/2025 04:34:06 pm ) she will be a rightful heir to 1/3rd share out of her father's property. So only the

Will indicates her share of properties inherited by her. This is only to prevent the

defendant from claiming any right over the same. The plaintiffs' father had

entered into a joint development of his old bungalow into apartments in the year

2005 and made a settlement deed only on 09.09.2009 in favour of each of his

daughters. The details of the property owned by K.S.Padmini has been given in

annexure A of the plaint. The words being of sound mind and memory hereby

record “my will, written in my own hand” would show that it is a holography

Will. The defendant did not have the fiduciary trust of the testatrix. It is clear

from the fact that her Income Tax Returns were filed and taken care of by her

father only, even after her marriage. After her father's death, she entrusted it to

her brother-in-law S.Vijay. The defendant did not make any investment in the

name of his deceased wife. When the testatrix was hospitalized for chemotherapy

cycles, surgery etc., one of her sisters was urged to come to Pune to support her,

despite the defendant treated them badly. So, K.S.Padmini decided to shift her

treatment to Chennai during May 2014. Thereafter, she was in the care of her

father and elder sister's family. The testatrix had passed away during September

2016 at her sister Rajini's Home at Gurgaon. There is no suspicious

circumstances surrounding the Will and hence, the Testamentary Original Suit

https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis ( Uploaded on: 18/11/2025 04:34:06 pm ) should be allowed.

6. On the basis of the above pleadings, this Court has framed the following

issues :

"i. Whether the Will dated 04.01.2003 was executed by late

K.S.Padmini out of her own will and volition without being

influenced by any other extraneous consideration ?

ii. Whether the Will dated 04.01.2003 is said to have been

executed by K.S.Padmini under suspicious circumstances for the

reason that it was said to have been executed on 04.01.2003 in

favour of her sisters when the marriage between the deceased

K.S.Padmini and the defendant had been solemnised on 15.02.2002

and there was absolutely no necessity for the wife of the defendant

to execute the Will in favour of her sisters ?

iii. Whether the relationship of late K.S.Padmini and the

defendant Vijay Rangarajan was strained relationship during the

life time of the deceased K.S.Padmini ?

iv. Whether the plaintiff is entitled for the grant of letters of

administration with Will annexed as prayed for in the plaint ?

v. To what other relief, the plaintiffs are entitled to ? "

https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis ( Uploaded on: 18/11/2025 04:34:06 pm )

7. Mr.V.Balasubramanian, the learned counsel for the plaintiffs, submitted

that the testatrix had preferred her father and her brother-in-law to be the

attestors of the Will, because she did not want others to know about the Will.

The Will would show that she did not suppress her marriage with the defendant.

The second attesting witness S.Vijay has been examined as P.W.2. He has stated

that the Will has been signed by the testatrix in the presence of the attestors and

the attestors also stated that they did not know the contents of the Will. He came

there at her call and saw her signing the Will in the presence of him and his

father-in-law. All the properties belonged to the testatrix and the properties were

not acquired by her through her husband. There was a strained relationship

between the testatrix and the defendant and even her marriage has not been

consummated. Even when the plaintiffs went in support of the testatrix during her

treatment, the defendant did not treat them well. So, the testatrix had a reason not

to divulge about her will to any one until her death. The cross examination of

P.W.2 would confirm about his attestation of the Will. The defendant does not

dispute the signature of the testatrix in the Will. It is not possible for the testatrix

and sisters to have similar handwriting as stated by the defendant. The defendant

did not produce any document to prove that he was taking care of the testatrix

https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis ( Uploaded on: 18/11/2025 04:34:06 pm ) during her treatment.

8. Ms.R.V.Gayathri, the learned counsel for the defendant, submitted that

the Will does not make any reference about her husband and marital nature

except mentioning as Padmini Vijay. There is no mention in the Will as to why

she opted to bequeath all the properties to the sisters to the exclusion of her

husband. It is unnatural for the attesting witnesses who had stated that they did

not know about the contents of the Will, because the Will is in a single page and

the contents is also very short. The one of the attesting witness S.Vijay has stated

that he did not inform about the Will to his wife's sister Nalini, the first plaintiff

herein, because the father of the testatrix had asked to keep it with himself. That

would only show that the father of the testatrix would know the content of the

Will and cautioned P.W.2. The testatrix had preferred to come down to Chennai

only in view of the treatment and not because of the alleged bitter relationship

with her husband. In the year 2003, the testatrix was living along with her

husband in Pune and there was no necessity for her to mention her permanent

address at Chennai. P.W.1 has stated in her evidence that in Reliance Mutual

Fund statement, the husband of the testatrix has been shown as a nominee and in

the postal savings accounts also, the testatrix has mentioned her husband as a

https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis ( Uploaded on: 18/11/2025 04:34:06 pm ) nominee. That would show that there is no strained relationship between the

testatrix and the defendant. As the testatrix was a house wife, her treatment

expenditure was borne by the defendant only. The sisters of the testatrix knowing

well that the testatrix did not have any children, had planned to create a forged

Will.

9. The plaintiffs are the sisters of the testatrix by name K.S.Padmini who is

the daughter of Late.K.S.Sarangapani. The Will is dated 04.01.2003.

K.S.Padmini got married to the defendant in the year 2002. She was diagnosed to

be suffering from cancer in the year 2011. For better medical treatment

K.S.Padmini came to Chennai in the year 2014 where she was under constant

medical supervision and she died due to Cancer in the year 2016. The suit Will is

an unregistered Will and it is seen to be written in one page as a holographic Will

attested by the father and her brother-in-law of the testatrix. The Will does not

disclose any specific details of the properties and it has been written in a very

generalised fashion that the testatrix desired to give all the movable and

immovable properties including the share of the property inherited by her to her

two sisters, in equal shares. The defendant, who is the husband of the testatrix,

has objected for grant of Letters of Administration in favour of the plaintiffs on

https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis ( Uploaded on: 18/11/2025 04:34:06 pm ) the allegation that K.S.Padmini did not have any necessity to execute the Will

within a year of her marriage and that too at a very young age of 34 years. He

also raised suspicion as to the vague manner in which the recitals have been

written in the Will. The defendant claimed that the testatrix had lived with him

for 14 years since their marriage and later she was diagnosed with cancer in the

year 2011. Though the defendant gave his utmost care to K.S.Padmini, she was

shifted to Chennai which was her father's place where one of her sisters is also

residing. The defendant submitted that there is no plausible reason stated in the

Will by the testatrix as to why she has to disinherit the defendant and bequeath

her share to her sisters.

10. The marriage relation between the testatrix and the defendant did not

go smooth and they had a strong relationship and hence it is claimed that the

testatrix could have thought it fit to settle her interest in the properties by way of

executing the Will and thereby bequeathing the properties in favour of her sisters.

K.S.Padmini did not have any child born out of her marriage. The first plaintiff

was examined as P.W.1. When she was questioned whether any steps have been

taken in pursuant to the strained relationship between the testatrix and her

husband, P.W.1 replied that she did not interfere in her life because K.S.Padmini

https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis ( Uploaded on: 18/11/2025 04:34:06 pm ) was managing on her own. Only in the year 2014 K.S.Padmini shifted herself to

Chennai to continue her treatment at Chennai by being with her father and other

sister. When a specific question was put to P.W.1 whether Pune was the

matrimonial home of K.S.Padmini, she answered that K.S.Padmini and her

husband were working at Bombay and K.S.Padmini used to visit her in-laws in

Pune. From the above evidence of P.W.1, it is clear that K.S.Padmini was living

with her husband only till the year 2014 and since her in-laws were in Pune, she

decided to take treatment at Pune. Had the relationship between K.S.Padmini and

her husband was so strained, it may not be possible for K.S.Padmini to be cordial

with her in-laws in Pune and continue to live with him.

11. Even if it is presumed for the sake of argument that the relationship

between K.S.Padmini and her husband was not going well, the fact remains that

K.S.Padmini had chosen to live with her husband until the year 2014. During the

argument of the learned counsel for the plaintiff it is submitted that the marriage

between K.S.Padmini and her husband was not consummated. As K.S.Padmini

had been living with her husband for more than a decade it is difficult to believe

that her marriage with her husband was not consummated. As K.S.Padmini

continued to live with the defendant, it cannot be concluded concretely that

https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis ( Uploaded on: 18/11/2025 04:34:06 pm ) K.S.Padmini had a strained relationship with her husband Vijay Rangarajan

during her life time. Thus, Issue No.3 is answered accordingly.

12. Even though the defendant had raised doubts about the sound and free

disposing state of mind on the part of K.S.Padmini for executing the Will, he had

admitted in his evidence that the signature in Ex.A1 - Will, appears that of

K.S.Padmini only. However, he claimed that when K.S.Padmini was staying with

her father, she might have signed in certain blank papers and blank cheques for

some other purpose and that has been made use of the plaintiffs to construct a

Will by themselves without the active involvement and free will of K.S.Padmini.

13. Some of the suspicious circumstances raised by the defendant with

regard to the above point are listed under:

(i) The Will has been executed in the year 2003 itself immediately after

their marriage.

(ii) In the recitals of the Will, even the marital status of K.S.Padmini is not

mentioned.

(iii) The Will is an unregistered one and the recitals are vague and

incomplete without making any specific reference about the details of the

https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis ( Uploaded on: 18/11/2025 04:34:06 pm ) property.

iv) At the young age of 34, there is no necessity for K.S.Padmini to

execute a Will.

(v) At that early point of marriage itself K.S.Padmini could not have

presumed that she could not have any child of her own or she will be affected by

cancer.

(vi) Without any reason, the husband, who is the direct legal heir of

Padmini, was disinherited.

(vii) The attesting witnesses are the father and brother-in-law of the

deceased K.S.Padmini. The said brother-in-law is husband of one of the

beneficiaries.

14. The learned counsel for the plaintiffs submitted that the testatrix made

the Will for safety purposes as she wanted to save her father who was being

harassed by the defendant immediately after her marriage. As stated already,

there is no evidence produced on the side of the plaintiffs to prove that there was

a strained relationship between the deceased K.S.Padmini and the defendant.

K.S.Padmini has been living with her husband only till the year 2014 and it is

not the contention of the plaintiffs that K.S.Padmini was separated from her

https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis ( Uploaded on: 18/11/2025 04:34:06 pm ) husband immediately after her marriage and continued to live at her father's

place. The recitals of the Will also does not state any specific reason about the

apprehension in the minds of the executant to execute the Will immediately after

her marriage.

15. It is true that K.S.Padmini did not have any child of her own and she

could not have imagined that she could never have a child in her life time and

that she would die soon due to cancer. P.W.1 herself has given a categorical

answer that after her marriage K.S.Padmini was living with her husband at

Bombay. In the above circumstances, absolutely no convincing reasons can be

presumed for executing the Will in the year 2003 itself.

16. The recitals of the Will also does not state anything as to why the

testatrix had intended to execute the Will at that early stage of her life and that

too immediately after one year from the date of her marriage. The body of the

Will does not state anything about the husband, the defendant herein. Even if the

relationship between herself and her husband was not smooth, it would have

been natural on her part to exclude him from inheritance by stating any specific

https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis ( Uploaded on: 18/11/2025 04:34:06 pm ) reasons in the Will. A patent omission in the Will about any mention of her

marriage or her husband also creates suspicious circumstance and hence the

plaintiffs have to allay those suspicious circumstances by adducing appropriate

evidence. So, the available evidence does not disclose any reasons for

K.S.Padmini to exclude her husband from inheriting the properties belonged to

her.

17. Question No.49 of the cross-examination of P.W.1 would show that

K.S.Padmini is said to be a house wife. However, in Question No.26 the answer

has been given by the same witness (P.W.1) that K.S.Padmini and her husband

were working at Bombay and K.S.Padmini used to visit her in-laws in Pune. So,

the evidence of P.W.1 appears to be self-contradictory and unreliable in respect

of the occupational status of the testatrix and also the relationship status with the

first respondent. In fact, K.S.Padmini has shown her husband as nominee in her

Post Office account. So, the non-mentioning of her husband in the Will executed

in Ex.A1 creates strong doubts.

18. It is submitted by the learned counsel for the plaintiffs that

K.S.Padmini has described herself as "K.S.Padmini alias Padmini Vijay", it

https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis ( Uploaded on: 18/11/2025 04:34:06 pm ) would show her marital status and hence the Will is not shrouded with any

doubtful circumstances. Even when there is nothing stated in the Will about the

reason for disinheriting the husband of K.S.Padmini, the recitals of the Will does

not specify any details of the property which K.S.Padmini intended to bequeath

to her sisters. So, the very generalized and vague manner in which the Will was

written, creates a doubt about the genuineness of the Will.

19. In the Will there is not even a recital as to her free state of mind and

execution of the Will without anyone's influence. In case, the father of

K.S.Padmini did not want his daughters to have any hold over the family

properties of their marriage, the daughters, including K.S.Padmini, would have

only executed a kind of settlement of lease deed in favour of their father. But that

is not the case with K.S.Padmini. In fact, her father had executed settlement

deeds in favour of his daughters after marriage. Even if the Will does not have

any other reasons, at least, it should have a reason as to why K.S.Padmini had

chosen to execute the Will at that early point of marriage by excluding her

husband from inheriting any right or interest over the properties.

https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis ( Uploaded on: 18/11/2025 04:34:06 pm )

20. Mr.K.S.Sarangapani who is the father of the plaintiffs and

K.S.Padmini, had executed a settlement deed on 09.09.2009 in favour of

K.S.Padmini by making her as an absolute owner in respect of a flat. The father

of the plaintiff had entered into a Joint Promotion Agreement with one flat

promoter and built a three-floor building containing several flats. He had settled

each flat to each of his daughters. If K.S.Sarangapani felt that it is unsafe to give

any property to K.S.Padmini in view of her so called “strained relationship” with

her husband, he would not have opted to settle the property in favour of

K.S.Padmini or would have made it conditional.

21. The attesting witness who was examined as P.W.2 has stated in his

evidence that in his opinion there can be two reasons that could have prompted

K.S.Padmini to write a Will. One is her husband’s demand for money to buy a

property and the other is that her marriage was not consummated. Ex.A1 – Will

absolutely lacks any material particulars about the properties which the testator

wished to bequeath in favour of her sisters. P.W.2 being the husband of one of

the sisters of the deceased K.S.Padmini, could have naturally enquired her why

she had chosen to write a Will at that young age. But the evidence of P.W.2 does

not have such a spontaneity shown by him. Even in case K.S.Padmini had chosen

to protect her properties from her husband, they would have certainly prompted

https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis ( Uploaded on: 18/11/2025 04:34:06 pm ) her to execute a registered Will. Because, the plaintiffs, their husbands and the

father of K.S.Padmini were all well educated and they would have known the

consequences of an unregistered Will which is roughly written in one sheet of

white paper.

22. Though exclusion of a natural heir from inheritance alone cannot be the

reason to suspect the genuineness and voluntariness of the Will, the

disinheritance of the natural legal heir would intensify the suspicious

circumstances. The Will does not even state about the marital status except by

describing her name as “K.S.Padmini @ Padmini Vijay”. There is also no reason

given to completely shadow the husband of the testator.

23. As stated already, the Will is very vague and cryptic without any

specificity. Had it been the Will executed by K.S.Padmini when she was

terminally ill due to cancer, it is understandable that she wanted to dispose her

property as how she desired. But the Will is said to be executed in the year 2003

itself. Even if it is taken to be true that K.S.Padmini had executed the Will in the

year 2003, when her father settled her flat in the year 2009, she would have

thought to make an arrangement in respect of the property acquired by her in the

https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis ( Uploaded on: 18/11/2025 04:34:06 pm ) year 2009. Even before knowing which of the property she is going to inherit or

acquire title, she had made an open and cryptic Will, that too immediately after

one year of her marriage, creates a strong doubt whether K.S.Padmini was acting

on her own free will and executed the Will. The instrument was propounded by

the testatrix without any outside influence and purely on her own volition. It is

difficult to believe that a person who got married in the year 2002 would come to

the immediate conclusion in the year 2003 itself that she is not going to have any

better life with her husband and out of her marriage no child would born to her.

24. The evidence of P.W.1 and P.W.2 as to the quality of the relationship

between the testatrix and the defendant, is highly improbable for the simple

reason that K.S.Padmini had chosen to live with her husband from the date when

she got married. Even in the year 2014, when she came to Chennai for better

assistance and medical care by staying at her father's place, she did not severe

her relationship with her husband. The time, the pattern and the type of the Will

and the other circumstances do not serve in favour of the plaintiffs to consider the

Will as the one executed by the testatrix on her own volition and without being

influenced by anyone.

25. Even though the defendant had not raised any suspicion as to the

signature of K.S.Padmini found in Ex.A1 – Will, the vague and cryptic nature of

the Will coupled with other suspicious circumstances, do not satisfy the

conscience of the Court to consider the instrument as the one executed by the

testatrix on her own free will. Thus, Issues 1, 2 and 4 are answered

accordingly.

26. As the plaintiffs have failed to dispel those doubtful circumstances

raised by the defendant which were proved to be reasonable and acceptable, that

would only disentitle the plaintiffs to get the Letters of Administration as prayed

by them.

27. In view of the above stated reasons, this Testamentary Original Suit is

dismissed. No costs.
