Since the property were in grand parents name and the grandfather expired in 1986 without any will the property in the name of the grand father devolve interstate to the LR's of your grandfather excluding daughters as the amendment to providing shares to the daughters came only in year similarly grandmothers property also devolve only son and not on daughters as she expired before amendment to HINDU SUCCESSION ACT.
