    The Indian Succession Act, 1925, applies

    to:
    A Matters of succession exclusively for the Hindu community Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    E The distribution of movable assets only, excluding all forms of real estate Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Section 3 of the ISA, 1925, provides that the Act applies to succession to the property of deceased persons (except in matters governed by Hindu law, Muslim law, Parsi law, etc.). It governs both testamentary succession (with a will) and intestate succession (without a will) for persons outside these personal law systems (like Christians, Sikhs, and secular Indians).
