My grandfather and his brother partitioned the ancestrol property in India during the year 1990.In the partition deed the 3 sons (all married before 1990 ) and my grandmother was also added as party along with my grandfather.The 4 daughters (all married before 1990 ) were not added as a party .My grandmother died in the year 1996 and my grandfather died in the year 2000.I want to know the share of the 4 daughters .Do they have the right to get equal share in whole property? My grandparents did not wrote any will.

Your 4 aunts can claim in their parents share and since there is no will left by them they can claim a part along with their brothers.

section 6 of the Hindu succession act provides the equal share as the son have,there fore the daughter will get the equal share.
