A.Dear Sir
You must give strong reasons for transferring such property by Will to your friend instead of to your family members. You may create some documents having taken huge amount of loan from him and in lieu of the same. You are executing the Will.

A.Dear Client,
Yes, you can bequeath your property to a friend in compliance with all the legal formalities/proceedings. There is no law that prevents a person from disposing of his self-acquired property according to his sweet wish anytime to anyone either through gift or will. A will, irrespective of whether it's handwritten or typewritten, on plain paper in clear language and witnessed by at least two persons, is legally valid. Non-registration of a Will does not lead to any inference against its genuineness. However, unregistered Wills are more likely to be challenged in court. A will is valid whether it is registered or unregistered.
