My mother-in-law has an inherited property(a house worthy of Rs.60 lakhs at Chennai).My father-in law and mother-in-law are more than 70 years old and they are alive.They are living in this house along with their youngest son(married).My in-laws have 3 sons and 3 daughters and all of them are married.I request for the reply for the following queries:
1)Do the daughters have equal right of share of this house-property in case it is sold?
2)Can my mother-in-law write a will allotting more share of amount for her sons and less amount of share for her daughters?
3)Can I now compel my mother-in-law to sell the house and demand her share of money?

as it is inherited property of your mother-in-law, the daughters have equal right over the property and one can't compell your mother-in-law for sale of property

Under the tamilnadu
act section 29A of the hindu succession act 1956 your wife is eligible to ask her share.
