Legal Question in Real Estate Law in India

My father only has a copy of registered will from his father. My dad's elder brother has the original and papers of the house. The will says that the house that we live in since 1993 belongs to my father after my grandfather's death. After my grandfather's death in 2003, we have been regularly paying house tax and water bill. Since the original is also missing from the Municipality office also, can we sell the house if we don't have papers on the basis of will, house tax documents. Can my dad's elder brother claim his share as well since he was seperately given properties by my grandfather? Can we re-register the house on our name since the originals are missing? What is the procedure?

In case effect of Will has already been given to records, then nothing further may be necessary.
