The Hindu Succession Act, 1956

Mukund Prakashan’s Marathi edition of The Hindu Succession Act, 1956 by Prof. R. S. Gorhe is a comprehensive, practice-oriented commentary designed for Marathi readers. Each section reproduces the original statutory text followed by concise Marathi commentary that explains legislative intent, judicial interpretations, and practical implications for inheritance, coparcenary, partition, and devolution of property. The book annotates landmark Supreme Court and High Court decisions that shape the Act’s application, and provides practitioner-focused features: specimen pleadings, petition templates, step-by-step procedural notes for probate and succession matters, and a “red-flag” checklist for contested cases. Clear sectional headings, an indexed table of cases, and cross-references make navigation fast for busy lawyers and students. This edition is particularly valuable in regions where Marathi is the working language of law offices and courts—bridging doctrinal clarity with real-world drafting and litigation tools. Ideal for classroom reference, courtroom preparation, client advisory, and competitive exam study, Prof. Gorhe’s work brings together scholarship and utility in a single Marathi volume.
