Daughters have equal rights to their mother's self-acquired property in India. According to the Hindu Succession (Amendment) Act 2005, a daughter has the same rights as a son in her mother's self-acquired property. This applies to both property that was acquired before and after the amendment came into effect.

No I can’t claim any such share.
We need more information on your case to evaluate things from legal point of view. You need to hire an expert advocate in this case, kindly be in touch to discuss and to understand the legalities in this regard.

It would have to be seen for whose benefit the property was purchased. Indian law allows a husband to buy property in his wife’s name although the benefit of the same could be for himself or his family. If the benefit of the property was for himself or for the family, you can claim right on the property.
