ClassI legal heirs of deceased Hindu male:
Mother, Spouse, sons and daughters, Son/Daughter of a pre-deceased son (per-deceased means “already Dead”)
Son/Daughter of a pre-deceased Daughter.
Father's share/property shall devolve equally upon:
Mother (of father if alive), Mother (wife of father, v), Daughter ( as described in your query).................Since the daughter has predeceased her share shall devolve upon her family (considering if the daughter was alive, she would have got 50% share and then his family chain would claim it from her).
Mother's ( Hindu Woman) share shall devolve upon her husband and sons and daughters (including the children of any pre-deceased son or daughter).
