The inheritance of Indio Solari raised questions about the future of his assets
Who are the heirs of Indio Solari
According to Argentine civil legislation, the primary heir is the child, followed by the spouse or partner.
In this case, the main figures in the process would be Bruno Solari, the musician's only son, and Virginia Inés "Viru" Mones Ruiz, the artist's partner and mother of Bruno.
The succession process would begin in the Civil Court of Morón, the jurisdiction where the singer resided and passed away.
Who are the heirs of Indio Solari
If there is a will, the distribution of the assets will follow what is established in that document. Otherwise, the rules provided by law will apply.
What assets are part of Indio Solari's inheritance
The inheritance of Indio Solari includes both material assets and rights related to the exploitation of his artistic work.
The home of Indio Solari in Parque Leloir
These include rights to his songs, possible reissues, official merchandise, his home in Parque Leloir, and potential projects associated with his name.
Additionally, the estate includes future income that may be generated from those assets.
What will happen to the company that manages the Los Redondos catalog
One of the central points of the succession is Erks SA, a company founded in 1992 by Indio Solari along with Skay Beilinson and Carmen "La Negra Poli" Castro.
What will happen to the company that manages the catalog of Los Redondos
The company manages the catalog and rights of Patricio Rey y sus Redonditos de Ricota. The group's name is registered with the INPI in the names of the three partners in equal parts and is valid until 2030.
The company remains active and recorded its last corporate movement in 2022, when it moved its tax headquarters to the downtown area of Buenos Aires.

What registered trademarks are included in the succession
The trademark Indio Solari has exclusively belonged to the singer since 2005 and is part of the succession. The trademark Indio y los Fundamentalistas del Aire Acondicionado is also included in the estate.
In contrast, Los Fundamentalistas del Aire Acondicionado was registered in 2021 by Gaspar Benegas, Pablo Sbaraglia, and manager Matías Mera, so it is not part of the inheritance.
The civil lawsuits that the succession will have to face
In addition to the assets, the succession will have to take on the civil cases that remain open against the artist. According to the information released, there are at least five lawsuits for damages pending within the Buenos Aires civil jurisdiction.
The civil claims that the estate will have to face
Death extinguishes criminal liability, but not the civil obligations that may arise from a court ruling.
The case related to the Olavarría concert
Among the ongoing cases is a lawsuit filed by a young man from Castelar who claimed to have suffered a double jaw fracture during the Olavarría concert in 2017. The legal action was initiated in 2019 with a claim for 9.3 million pesos.
