Indian Succession Act, 1925 Section 80

Title: Extrinsic Evidence Admissible in Cases of Patent Ambiguity

State: Central

Year: 1925

Where the words of a Will are unambiguous, but it is found by extrinsic evidence that they admit of applications, one only of which can have been intended by the testator, extrinsic evidence may be taken to show which of these applications was intended. Illustrations (i) A man, having two cousins of the name of Mary, bequeaths a sum of money to "my cousin Mary". It appears that there are two persons, each answering the description in the Will. That description, therefore, admits of two applications, only one of which can have been intended by the testator. Evidence is admissible to show which of the two applications was intended. (ii) A, by his Will leaves to B "my estate called Sultanpur Khurd". It turns out that he had two estates called Sultanpur Khurd. Evidence is admissible to show which state was intended.

Indian Succession Act, 1925 Section 81

Title: Extrinsic Evidence Inadmissible in Case of Patent Ambiguity or Deficiency

State: Central

Year: 1925

Where there is an ambiguity or deficiency on the face of a Will, no extrinsic evidence as to the intentions of the testator shall be admitted. Illustrations (i) A man has an aunt, Caroline, and a cousin, Mary, and has no aunt of the name of Mary. By his Will he bequeaths 1,000 rupees to "my aunt, Caroline" and 1,000 rupees to "my cousin, Mary" and afterwards bequeaths 2,000 rupees to "my before-mentioned aunt, Mary". There is no person to whom the description given in the Will can apply, and evidence is not admissible to show who was meant by "my before-mentioned aunt, Mary". The bequest is, therefore, void for uncertainty under section 89. (ii) A bequeaths 1,000 rupees to............leaving a blank for the name of the legatee. Evidence is not admissible to show what name the testator intended to insert. (iii) A bequeaths to B .......................rupees, or "my estate of........................" Evidence is not admissible to show what sum or what estate the testator intended to insert.

INDIAN SUCCESSION ACT, 1925Chapter 8 - OF THE VESTING OF LEGACIES Section 119 - Date of vesting of legacy when payment or possession postponed Where by the terms of a bequest the legatee is not entitled to immediate possession of the thing bequeathed, a right to receive it at the proper time shall, unless a contrary intention appears by the will, become vested in the legatee on the testator's death, and shall pass to the legatee's representatives if he dies before that time and without having received the legacy, and in such cases the legacy is from the testator's death said to be vested in interest.
