As you are the first child of your biological father as per the act you have the legal right over the biological father's property and the two sons shall have the right but after your right as upon his remarriage you have step brother's. For more details kindly contact

From what i can make out if your step fathers name is in your school certificate and Aadhar Card then i assume he has adopted you. Now if the step father has legally adopted you then your biological parent has relinquished his right as a father and therefore you cannot claim any right of inheritance of propery which belonged to your biological father. However if that is not the case and you have not been legally adopted then what now matter is your legal parent? Therefore certain documents are to be looked into and your legal parent has to be ascertain and if it is concluded that your biological father is your legal father then yes certainly you can claim a right in his property as a legal heir. Facts reamain to be ascertained and until you provide me with all the details I can't provide you with an accurate answer.
