Pension to unmarried daughter when second wife is alive

Hi,

Please note the age of the unmarried daughter is 37 years

Arti,

            Unmarried duaghter is certainly a benficiary from her father estate. She is the first class legal heir of her father under the provisions of Hindu succession act. Army officer second wife is also entitled to the share of her husband estate. both are entitled to pension drawn from father and husband as both are in the category of first class heirs. Daughter and wife can share the pension equally in 50% - 50%

Have you included your unmarried daughter as a beneficiary to the pension alongwith your second wife. If not  so do it.. Then both will be eligible for pension . Over and above you can make a wil to part with money /property to her by the second wife from the income /stock fom other estates.
