Why writing a will is important
According to the press release, “Recent studies indicate a startling gap in estate planning awareness, with over 95% of Indians lacking a proper Will. This oversight has led to numerous familial disputes and protracted legal battles, and unclaimed assets worth several billions; underscoring the critical need for such an initiative.”
In many parts of the world, the concept of gifting estate planning services has been well-received, particularly for milestones like marriages, anniversaries, and significant birthdays. The introduction of these gift cards in India is an approach to address a vital yet often overlooked aspect of personal finance management. These gift cards are ideal for anyone wishing to encourage friends, family, or even colleagues to initiate their estate planning journey. They serve as a thoughtful gesture toward parents, spouses, or even young adults who are starting to build their assets.
“In celebrating significant life events, we must also think proactively about protecting our financial future. These gift cards are an entry point for many to understand and take charge of their estate planning, ensuring peace of mind for themselves and their families,” Chundi added.
AasaanWill is an end-to-end digital platform that is streamlining Will writing, enabling individuals to create customized and legally-binding Wills that can be written in any Indian language.
