what is the percentage of share they can get?

when was the law passed for equal shares in the property ? some one told it was passed in 80's so only who married after 80's will get the share, is it true ?

"My grandfather owned a land" if it is self acquired property, then it will go to both sons and daughters equally i.e. she can move court to get her share (1/4). and answer of 2nd question too is "Yes" .

It it is ancestral then whoever have got married before 1956, wil not get any share, those have married after that will get share  from the share of your grand father equally, i.e. total property will be divided in three equal share (gand father + 1st son + 2nd son) ur grand father will get 1/3 share .

Above is as per my knowledge, wait for the answers of experts.

Also, In this "It it is ancestral then whoever have got married before 1956, wil not get any share, those have married after that will get share  from the share of your grand father equally, i.e. total property will be divided in three equal share (gand father + 1st son + 2nd son) ur grand father will get 1/3 share ."  daughters do not get share in ancestral living houses, which is being used by generations for living purpose.

Please cross check with any good civil lawyer.

Please let us know the year of your grandfather's demise ( assuming he is no longer alive). Based on this we will have to see whether the limitation act will prevail in this situation.
