CA Manish Kumar Sinha Launches ‘3W of WILL: What, When and Why’ to Promote Awareness About Succession Planning

New Delhi -A will is one of the most important documents in a person’s life, yet succession planning often remains neglected. While people are aware that using a mobile phone while driving is prohibited, many continue to take the risk and pay the penalty. Similarly, people understand the importance of making a will, but often postpone the decision without taking any concrete action.
Recognizing this gap in public awareness, CA Manish Kumar Sinha, a practising Chartered Accountant and business consultant, has authored the book ‘3W of WILL: What, When and Why’. Written in simple, easy-to-understand language, the book aims to make the legal concept of a will accessible to ordinary people, regardless of their legal or financial background.
Although making a will is a legal matter, understanding its importance should not be complicated. Through this book, the author explains the meaning, timing and purpose of making a will with practical examples and straightforward explanations. The book addresses several common misconceptions, including the belief that a will should be made only towards the end of life, that it cannot be amended once written, and that registration is compulsory for every will to be legally valid. By addressing these myths and explaining the relevant concepts in layman’s language, the book encourages readers to take a practical approach towards protecting their assets and planning the smooth transfer of wealth to the next generation.CA Manish Kumar Sinha believes that succession planning is not merely about distributing wealth; it is also about protecting family relationships, reducing the possibility of disputes and ensuring peace of mind for loved ones. A well-planned will can help communicate a person’s wishes clearly and provide greater clarity to family members during difficult times.The book was launched by Mr. Rudra Kumar Pandey, Senior Partner at a leading law firm; Mr. Satya N. Gupta, Retired IAS officer; and Mr. Sandeep Marwah, Chairman of the Business Law School. The launch highlighted the importance of spreading awareness about wills, inheritance and succession planning among the general public.
Through ‘3W of WILL: What, When and Why’, CA Manish Kumar Sinha seeks to encourage individuals and families to move beyond awareness and take timely action. His message is simple: succession planning should not be postponed until it is too late. Making a will is not just about wealth; it is about clarity, responsibility and family harmony.
