Father wants to sell his ancestral property in Maharastra. The property is around 60 years old. He has 2 sons and 2 daughters.
Daughters were married in 1980's. Can daughters claim their share in this property?
As i understand they cannot as they are married before 2005. Let me know if thats the case.

Daughters married or not have a birth right in such ancestral property. They can set aside any alienation made by the father (as a Karta if it's not for legal necessity of benefit of estate) and seek partition.

Thanks for your response, Adv. Bharat. Can father make a decision about the distribution of share of his ancestral properties amongst his sons & daughters. Or by law they all deserve equal share?
Father is proposing to buy property for himself & one of his unmarried sons from the money received through this sale and remainder money will be divided equally.
