According to the definition, a Will is a legal declaration of a person\u2019s\nintention regarding his property, which he wants to take effect after his\ndeath. In layman terms, a Will is basically a legal instrument. By way of a Will,\na person disposes of his estate. Further, the same is done in the name of his\nfriends, relatives, or any other person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><div class=\"shadow3\">Usually,\nWill comes into effect after the death of the testatrix or testator (person\nmaking the will). Even though, in some cases, the transfer of the property takes\nplace during the life of the testator as well. Further, the validity of the Will\nis proved by the signature of the concerned testator and the attesting\nwitnesses of the said will. However, if there is a Probate of will, then the\nsame increases the credibility and reliability of the will.<\/div><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Types_of_Will\"><\/span><strong>Types of Will<\/strong><strong><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the India Succession\nAct, the term Will is bifurcated into two parts, i.e., Privileged Will and\nUnprivileged Will.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Privileged Wills<\/strong> \u2013 These are those Wills that are drafted by the soldiers\nwho are employed in an expedition, mission, or a war-like situation or a\nmariner or airman.
