Legal Question in Real Estate Law in India
Change the Title.
I want to change the name of my father to my name on the domestic electricity bill, water bill, house tax etc. my father gave me that house through Registered Will. I file suit to Probate the Will and got the decree on my name but in another court my brother challanged this decree and got ''status-quo''. In this situation can i apply to the concern department to change title on bills?

Re: Change the Title.
No. In view of order of "status quo" by a Court, your acting on Will may amount to contempt of court.
Re: Change the Title.
No, till the order of 'status quo' is continuing, you may want to wait for making any changes in title.
Re: Change the Title.
once status quo is granted, you cannot change the name on the electricity connection. wait for the final outcome of the case.
