Very Good Afternoon,
I am Rajesh my grand father Mr. A (died in 2004) has written a will. He has one son Mr.B and Mr.B has 3 sons(2 of them married) and 3 daughters all are married. Mr.A has written a will stating all his properties, lands and bank deposits should be distributed equally among the son and 3 grand sons.
My query is, the daughters of Mr.B does still have any right in the grand father ancestor property even though Mr. A has clearly written a will? Kindly advice.

If will written by A is valid in eye of law then daughters of B have no right to claim share in properties left by A.

You have not stated whether Grand Father's property is self acquired or ancestral. If the GF got Prop from his ancestors, daughters will have right. If it is self acquired prop of GF, daughters will not have property and the beneficiaries of the will are only eligible i.e. three sons and grand sons are eligible.

Your grand father can sell / gift / mortgage / bequeath a will for his self acquired property , no one can object.
In light of above daughters have no share in the property.

Daughters have no right. Property devolves according to will.

If it is self acquired, why you have written, in the first instance, that the property is ancestral?

Daughters are excluded in the self acquired property, they have right on ancestors properties.
