A.Hi,
As the nomination is your mother and she was unmarried and has no child, it is valid and can not be changed by your mama into your nani name. There is nothing legally they can do for changing it.
Thank you.

A.Nomination cannot be considered as any proof of ownership. Nominee is mere custodian of assets so if your Nani claims through Succession Certificate,then she is entitled to have the entire sum. So it is necessary to know whether your Mama has submitted Succession Certificate or not.
