30 Summary The updated positive claim is consistent with GERDA individual limit. Although strong tension with the combined GERDA+HM+IGEX limit KamLAND-Zen+EXO-200 combined limit rules out the positive claim for most of the NME calculations A positive signal in 0ν2β-decay from the 3 light neutrino conflict with the most stringent limit from PLANCK TeV scale Left Right Model with lower gauge boson and right handed neutrino mass In the heavy sterile neutrino regime, large effective mass can be obtained even for hierarchical light neutrino mass A lower bound on light neutrino mass TeV scale Left-Right model accessible at LHC Normal hierarchy can give more constraint in the M N M WR plane as compared to Inverted hierarchy Correlated constraints in the right handed sector: complementarity to LHC
