Check the bank account opening form. Did the father filed the nomination in the bank saving account? If there is no nomination, then the bank is at liberty to ask for succession certificate or may ask for a no-objection certificate from other legal heirs of the accountholder. If the account is a joint account with the mother, then the mother will become the account holder after getting NOC from other legal heirs. The money of the saving account transferred to the mother or his son will be non-taxable.
