Right of daughter`s daughter in grand mothers ancestral property


09-Mar-2023 (In Property Law)
The property is an old house in kolkata which is in the mane of the mother(M) who has passed away leaving behind 3 sons & 1 daughter a long ago. The daughter was married off in the year 1938, thereafter she died leaving her daughter(X) behind who eventually also died leaving behind her daughter(Y). Now we are planning to sell the house. The question is weather Y & her husband have any claim on the property or not? If yes what should be her percentage share. We are governed by Hindu Laws.

It is impossible to respond unless we have a complete family chart. Under the Hindu Succession Act there are classes of relationships who qualify as heirs. You will have to meet a lawyer with the entire family chart and only then will the lawyer be able to confirm the list of current heirs in interest.

As per your query it appears that surviving legal heiress is sole legal heir of her mother and her mother was also sole legal heirs then y would be entitled to 1/4th share of MOTHER (M) as mother have three sons and one daughter.
