If the property is your grandfather's self acquired property acquired during his life time, then your father gets full right by way of the settlement deed and you cannot claim the property as ancestral property.
But, in case if the said property is not your grandfather's self acquired property then you get a share over it.

The property is conveyed to your father by way of settlement deed. Your father is the full owner by the same. then it is to be treated as self acquired property only. you cannot claim his property

Since it is a clear case of ancestral property, settlement deed has to address the stake or share for the daughter

You are entitled for the share in the property.
