| Summary, etc. |
The previous edition of the book explained the significant clarifications brought out through the landmark decisions of the Apex and other Courts particularly in areas relating to Hindu Succession Act as amended by the Amending Act of 2005. These clarifications were necessitated by the uncertainties created as a result of varying views on the interpretation of certain vital provisions as marked by differing judicial pronouncements. Development of law is a continuous process, more so, when it concerns personal property rights of persons. Some of the issues, considered as settled, remained under litigation before the Apex Court. In this connection, we mention the rights of nominee vis-a vis the legal heir as per the rules of succession in assets of the nature of shares, debentures, etc. As mentioned in the last edition, the differing views of the Single Judge Benches were considered by the Division Bench in Shakti Yezdani case holding that the nomination does not bestow beneficial ownership to the nominee who holds the assets on behalf of the legal heirs. Not being satisfied, the aggrieved party took the matter to the Supreme Court which vide their order pronounced on 14.12.2023 confirmed the order of the Divisional Bench holding that the nominee is not the actual owner of the asset but holds it in a fiduciary role for the benefit of legal heirs determined by a Will or relevant succession law. ---provided by publisher |
