Descripttion:
Family - Father, Mother, 2 sons and 3 daughters. (Hindu family)
Mother died first, father died later (a partition was done in village panchayat while father and mother were alive dividing ancestral property among Father and 2 sons but not registered hence I believe it has no validity in the eyes of law).
I believe when the Father died it is considered as dying intestate.
All the daughters and sons were married prior to 1989 (the year in which equal property rights for women were allowed in Tamil Nadu).
Questions:
1. What is the proportion of property rights for each of the 2 sons and 3 daughters if the father died intestate (no surviving wife)?
2. What does the Indian succession act of 1956 confer for each of legal heirs? Does it force equal partition of property among the heirs (assuming Class I consisting only 2 son and 3 daughters) of Hindu family?
