Under section 30 of the Hindu Succession Act, 1956, which pair identifies two interests a Hindu can ordinarily dispose of by will?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer C
Section 30 permits a Hindu to dispose by will of property that they can legally dispose of. The Explanation specifically includes their own interest in Mitakshara coparcenary property. The provision does not extend the will to someone else's share.
Option feedback
Option A
Self-acquired property ordinarily qualifies. Another coparcener's share belongs to that coparcener.
Option B
The testator's own Mitakshara interest qualifies. The testator cannot dispose of someone else's share.
Option C
Both the testator's disposable self-acquired property and their own Mitakshara coparcenary interest may be disposed of by will.
Option D
Neither someone else's share nor an interest the testator has already transferred remains the testator's disposable property.
