The court fees is 75k for SuccessionCertificate/ LoA. Needless to say your lawyer will charge you.Testamentary is the slowest department to exist. 8-10 months.
Please consider that the court fees is actually not exhorbitant as you can transfer assets worth crores.
Lastly, please note that Legal Heir Certificate, Succession Certificate and Letters of Administration are different.
For a middle class person, the numbers, just as court fees being quoted is just exorbitant. My cousins were straight out told by a fellow lawyer, they hired that 75k is the court fees, without examination of documents, whereas the cap is 75k.
