Legal Question in Family Law in India
Registered Will
If my parents have made a registered will and in that they have mentioned me (their son) should have the ownership of their house and other bank FDs and other belongings after their death, would this come to me although I have a married sister or would I have to share it with her although they have not mentioned in the will that it has to be shared.
Or should they put it on my name from before.
Also, if later I decide to sell the house would the funds come to me or does it need to be shared with my sister.

Yes only the property mentioned in the will by your parents should not be ancestor's but self acquired property.
Re: Registered Will
if the house is their self acquried property then they can will to anybody of their choice. it will come to you
Re: Registered Will
Your sister may be an equal share holder in the entire ancestral property, unless in the will she is specifically excluded from inheritance of any of their 'self acquired' asset.
