A woman born in 1962 who married before 1985, and is now widowed, has a right to a share in her deceased father’s ancestral property under the Hindu Succession Act, 1956. Her right to inherit is not affected by her marriage prior to 1985, as the law was amended in 2005 to give daughters equal inheritance rights as sons.
