Section 283, Indian Succession Act | Single Newspaper Publication + Incomplete Addresses Invalidate Service of Citation in Probate: Bombay HC

Incomplete service violates natural justice and renders the probate grant vulnerable to revocation, affecting executors and heirs alike in succession disputes.
