What does the consent affidavit in succession petition imply?
The Consent Affidavit for a Succession Petition has a clause stating that I am entitled to a 25% share in the estate and credits of the deceased. The petitioner has applied for probate of the properties and credits of the deceased in their Hon’ble Court. The affidavit includes a statement of no objection to the petition for probate being granted to the petitioner without service of the citation upon me, and I hereby waive the service of citation upon me, granting my full and free consent in favour of the petitioner, without justifying my share in the estate of the deceased. Does this mean that I will not receive the share I am entitled to if an order is passed in favour of the administrator, and that the administrator has the right to allocate me even a zero share in the estate of the deceased, according to their discretion?

By signing the Consent Affidavit, you are waiving your right to object to the probate petition. However, it does not mean you lose your entitled share. If the administrator’s decision seems unfair, you can still contest it through legal channels. It's important to discuss with a lawyer to protect your rights.
