You need to take the death certificate of the person who is no more to the bank and submit it to them along with your details. After verification the bank will remove their name from the joint account and make you the sole beneficiary. In case the other person has a different legal heir, then you may need an No Objection Certificate from them before the account becomes your single operated account.
