If will is in place, legal heir certificate is not required. your docs are sufficient.

Hi,

As you say that the shares have been transfered in the name of husband of deceased. The Bonus shares should also be transfered in similar manner.

As pointed out by Jaideep, and as mentioned by you, the given documents are enough. You may submit these to the company. If the company still refuses, you can excercise your right to complaint against the company at Stock Exchange/ SEBI/ ROC, and of course can take legal course of action too.
