A probate petition is filed to get the will of a deceased person certified by a court.
The estate left behind by Thackeray includes property and bank deposits worth Rs 14.85 crores, according to the will signed by the Sena patriarch. A copy of the will has been attached to the probate petition filed by Uddhav.
Jaidev has contested the will in an affidavit, saying the property was valued much more than the declared worth.
According to him, the Bandra bungalow ‘Matoshri' is itself valued at Rs 40 crore.
Jaidev has contended that although he had separated from his father some years ago, he had cordial relations with him and that the senior Thackeray could not have signed such a will in which he has not been given any share in the family property.
Jaidev is currently staying separately with his third wife. His divorced wife Smita also stays separately.
