The amendment in Hindu Sucession Act, 1956 has prospective and not retrospective effect. Therefore, coparcenary rights of a daughter has to take effect after September 2005. However, Section 29A of Andhra Pardesh Amendment Act, 2005 can not have overriding effect on the Central Act.
In the intstant case, "the elder brother (Y1) had one son(S1) and one daughter (D1)...." Y1 sold the property in the year 1969 through a registered Sale Deed, without consent of D1 (his daughter) although she was major at that time, as I observed from this post, it do not confer coparcenary right to the daughter and there is no illegality in the sale transaction.

My doubt whether "XX" is male or female arose because you have mentioned that: THE PERSON XX WAS DIED IN THE YEAR 1948 and intestate was devolved HER three sons (i.e Y1,Y2,Y3).
Now, you say that Y1 had sold the property in the year 1969 by means of a Registered Sale Deed. If so, who is in possession of the property now? What happened to the purchaser?
If the property had already been sold in the year 1969, how the son of Y1 can have his name in the revenue records?
Whether the purchaser has any legal heirs or not?
Who has filed the case before the Court?
You have to first clarify these points.

Dr. Vashista is right in opinion that the HSA amendment act has no retrospective effect, thereby the daughter whether major or minor during 1969 do not have coparcenery rights in the property. Since the property was sold by Y1 under a registered sale deed, the property belongs to the purchaser and to his legal heirs subsequent to his intestate death. It might have escaped the knowledge of the purchaser to mutate the records in his name subsequent to his purchase but that does not dis-entitles him of his title over the property. The registered sale deed need not be contested to this extent. If the property is in possession of the legal heirs of deceased purchaser, they need not have filed a declaration suit too.

In 1969 the daughters did not have any share in the ancestral property. Therefore the consent of the daughter is not necessary for effecting the sale of the property.
Where minor son's share is involved in the ancestral property, the Father has no right to sell the same, unless he obtains the assent (in this case the minor cannot give assent); or unless there is some established necessity or moral or religious obligation to justify the sale.
In any case, the daughter cannot stake any claim now, since the property if at all had already devolved on the sole survivor (minor son) in the year 1969 itself.
