You ticked the box . you did not settle the question
A nominee is who receives it.
Not who owns it.
Rs 8000000 across a demat account and mutual fund folios. No will. Wife is the sole nominee. She is also one of four Class I heirs, alongside his mother and their two children.
She receives
100%
Rs 8000000
The whole balance is transferred into her hands.
She owns
25%
Rs 2000000
One Class I share. Same as the mother. Same as each child.
She holds for others
75%
Rs 6000000
Money in her account that belongs to three other people.
The sentence nobody reads on the form
A nomination tells the institution whose hand to put the money in. It has never told anyone whose money it is.
