Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in India

A Testator bequeaths in his unregistered WILL, his four fully owned/ partially owned immovable properties in a certain manner. However after death of testator the beneficiaries get one of the properties mutated on their names on intestate basis ignoring the WILL and without revealing its existence to the concerned mutating authority. This was done since the stated bequest pertaining to that specific property in the WILL did not, perhaps, suit the beneficiaries. Nevertheless the WILL was used later for mutation of another property where the stated bequest in the WILL possibly suited them. Does law permit this leeway for the heirs to use the WILL at their pleasure, only in selected properties where it goes well with them? Is it legal to get mutation of property done by concealing existence of WILL left behind by a father and execute mutation on intestate basis? Is it then legal to bring into play the WILL for other properties? Are the mutations already managed under two different modes for the two properties legal?
