Madam,

As you told you are become the absolute owner of the 1st floor property and khatha also transfered to your name and the ground floor to your mother.

you are not detailed the any contents of the WILL executed by your father. Therefore if there is any clause in that then you can get right over the equal share. If the WILL contain specific sharing, only you have the rights over the said share.

If the WILL as you stated in your facts, you can claim your share.
