Under Section 27 of the Registration Act, 1908, a will may be presented for registration:
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C.
1. Section 27 states that a will may be presented for registration "at any time".
2. The Lesson 15 paragraph on "Presentation of a Will" reproduces this rule.
3. Registration of a will is itself optional under Section 18(f), so the strict four-month timetable in Section 23 does not apply.
4. A will may alternatively be deposited under Sections 40-46 in a sealed cover with the Registrar.
