If the amount is not much e.g. is Rs.25,000/- or less the bank may settle your claim on indemnity and affidavit basis. Approach the Bank concerned to find out how best they can settle your claim. If they insist upon Succession Certificate from a court of law, approach the local lawyer to make the necessary application to court.
