This query is : Resolved
Hi Experts,
This query is about my Mom's property. My Maternal grandfather had 2 wife's & 4 Daughters(1 st wife children). My mom is 3rd daughter out of four.
second wife had no children & she adopted my mom as her daughter. entire property belonged to her (land & house). half of the property was shared to my mom through WILL.
Remaining half was shared to her husband(My maternal grandpa)
Grandpa transferred that property to his 1st wife(maternal grandma).
Grandpa:Expired
1 wife: Alive (who has half property now)
2 wife: Expired
My query is, after the death of grandma is that property belongs to other 3 sisters of my mother or my mom is eligible for claiming that property. As the property belonged to grandpa's 2nd wife who adopted my mom & declared as her daughter.
Kindly guide me & clarify my doubts.
Thank you.

If the adoption of your mom by her step mother was done legally and by a registered deed, you mother will not be eligible to stake a claim for a right in the share of property of her original mother's intestate property, she will be restricted to her step mother's property alone.

Your mother is eligible to inherit the property of her adopted parents provided adoption was rightly done.

If adoption was rightly done, the adopted child has right in the property of adopting parents.
