Agar husband ke dawara vashiyat ki gai hai tab usko jaiga jiske haq me vashiyat ki gai hai.
Agar vashiyat nhi gai hai tab successor ko equal rights jainge.
Agar mother jinda hai tab mother ko bhi right jaiga.
Hindu law ke anusar died person ke successor ko equal rights jaata hai. Jitne bhi successor ho.

Wives will not get a share in ancestral property. All the children will get equal share. The self acquired property of the father shall be divided 50:50 between both the wives. 1) Second wife has no right while the first wife and all children are entitled

A.Half blood or full blood sibling are both class I heir and has equal right over the interstate property of their father along with the second wife is alive. Hence if your grandmother who is the second wife of your grandfather is alive the share of each would be 1/5 whereas if your grandmother is not alive then the share of each child of your grandfather will take 1/4 share of the property of your grandfather.

A.Dear Client,
If your grandfather died intestate, i.e, without making a will, his four children born out of the wedlock(s) and the widow (your grandmother, if she is alive) would avail the first priority, as a result of securing slots of Class 1 heirs, according to Hindu Succession Act, 1956, if you're a Hindu.
The right to inheritance shall exist, wherein each of the heirs shall avail stipulated portions of the property, amounting to 1/5 of the whole one.
Thank you.

The property is split evenly among Class 1 heirs. Regardless of whether they have two separate moms and the same father, all children are considered Class 1 heirs.
If you like my answer please rate my answer. Thank You.
The property is divided between the legal heirs of Class 1 equally. All children are considered as Class 1 heirs irrespective of the fact that they has two different mothers and same father. Therefore, the property will be equally divided between all children.

If his second wife predeceased him,then in absence of Will,your grandfather's property has been devolved upon his four kids and each of them have one-fourth undivided share therein.
Through registered Partition Deed the property in aforesaid ratio is required to be divided amongst them.
