According to the recent Supreme Court Judgment a daughter will have equal share in the self acquired property of the father when the father died after September 2005. If the father died before that then daughter will have no share in the father’s property. In your case you will not get share in the self acquired property of your parents but you can claim for share in the ancestral property. The ancestral property will be distributed according to the Hindu Succession Act.
