Division of property is governed by Succession Act.
You have not specified your religion. However assuming let your Hindu then the assets of your parents will be divided in equal proportion amongst all legal heirs.

in the absence of will. All the legal heirs have equal rights to the cash and gold of your parents. I would suggest you to handle the home as an elder of the family, make your brothers and sisters understand things and distribute equally among them. You can get in contact with me, I do settle the family disputes amicably
