Rights of daughter on fathers property
03-May-2023 (In Property Law)
My grandfather has a property in coorg. He has 4 children , 2 girls and 2 boys. He passed away when my mom was 18 years old without leaving a will. My grandmother is still alive, however most recently my grandmother wrote a will where in she name her two sons as the sole owners of the land. We would like to know in this case will my mom and her sister have any rights to inherit the property left by their father? Thank you
According to recent Supreme Court Judgment, if the father died after September 2005 then daughters will have equal share in the self acquired property of the father and it will be distributed among all the legal heirs and your mother can claim for equal share in the self acquired property of your father.
If father passed away before September 2005 the daughters will have no share in the property.
But if the property was an ancestral property then the property will be distributed according to the Hindu Succession Act.

Your religion is not stated in your query.Therefore it is difficult to answer your query.
Therefore you can again post your query.You did not mention your father's phone history.Your query must be on legal question.Your query is regarding property rights.In India property rights are different from religion to religion.

This is my response to you:
1. If your father has not divorced your mother yet then you have claim on his property after his death;
2. Right now your mother can claim maintenance and cost of living expenses;
3. Your mother can approach the family court;
4. Your mother can file for divorce also if she opts for the same;
5. Consult a local lawyer with full facts and then take steps.
