Post Office account death claim rules: How to claim money from post office after account holder’s death with or without nomination

In India, claiming funds from a deceased person's account involves specific steps. Nomination simplifies the process with minimal paperwork. Legal evidence, like a will, also works. Without nomination, claims up to Rs 5 lakh need affidavits after six months. Amounts above Rs 5 lakh require a succession certificate. Knowing these procedures ensures a smooth transfer of funds to rightful heirs.
