Step-sisters legal heir in ancestral property

Dear Sir,

My Grand Father was died in 1980. He did two marriages. First Marriages wife (A) and after death of first wife he did second marriage wife (B)

Wife (A)Dead = 1 son my father.

Wife (B) = 3 daughters + 1 son. All the daughters are married before 1994, and well settled with their husbands.

Grandfather did not make any will of the property. In 7/12 property showing 50%-50% to My father and his Step-brother, but in other rights daughters names are there.

My father and his step- brother are enjoying the said property 50-50%.

Now suddenly as per Hindu Succession act amended 2005 Wife (B)’s 3 of daughters are claiming their share in property of my grandfather which is under our possession.

Sir, I want to know.

1)How far these daughters are law full as they all are married before year 1994? and If they are lawful then are they going to share the whole property of my Grandfather or they will share in the 50% of my father’s step-brother.

2) Is this property of my Grandfather will divide in 50%-50% in wife (A) and Wife (B) and then accordingly to their heirs (50% to my father and 50% to their step brother and 3 step-sisters)

or each child will get the same share.
