I was informed that a legal heir certificate from court needs to be obtained and registered after which alone she will be able to file the husbands ITR as representative assessee.

16 January 2021 Dear Mr Seetharaman
Thanks for the info, but at Municipality they are providing only for government servants.
Can an affidavit from Notary suffice ?

16 January 2021 Affidavit will not suffice. Municipality should issue legal heir certificate to all residing in its jurisdiction.
