How do I add a codicil to my existing will in Kota?

Detailed Legal Analysis

A codicil in Kota is a supplementary document that modifies, explains, or adds to an existing will without revoking it entirely. The Rajasthan High Court has held that a codicil must satisfy the same formalities as the original will.

Under the Rajasthan Rent Control Act 2001 and the Indian Succession Act, the codicil must be in writing, signed, and attested by two witnesses. It must clearly reference the original will and specify the changes being made.

A codicil can be registered separately or along with a re-registered will. Multiple codicils should be read together with the will as a single instrument.
