Rights of daughter in the ancestral property


01-Nov-2023 (In Property Law)
Hi, A person (A) acquires a property through partition along with his brother (B), from his father (C). His father (C) acquires the same property from his father (D). Now Person (A) died in 1997, without leaving any will. This person (A) has a son (E) and a daughter (E) now alive. Daughter (E) got married in the year 1976 and already provided a sworn affidavit and notary in favor of Son (E) in 1997. Now, this property is under name of Son (E) as per andhra pradesh municipal records. Son (E) is paying all the taxes until today under his name. Although, daughter already signed, she came and asks for share. Does daughter have any share on this property? Thanks.
