When the traditional concept of coparcener tracking from male linage including only male members has been dismantled with HSA2005 act in case of ancestral property partition including daughters,I want to know can the property held by great grandmother can be termed as ancestral property in joint undivided hindu family in any circumstances as the term copercener include both sons and daughter now. Will it be maintaining its self acquired property in all circumstances.

Properties inherited from mother, grandmother, uncle and even brother is not ancestral.
The property received by woman becomes her absolute property.
