A.During the lifetime of mother-in-law, a widow daughter-in-law is not entitled to claims on the self-acquired property. However a widow daughter-in-law has a right of residence in a shared household under the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act.
If mother-in-law has expired and bequeathed the property to any surviving sons or daughter, then the widow daughter-in-law and her children will not be entitled to claim on such self acquired property.
However, if the mother-in-law died intestate, then the children of the widow daughter-in-law has a right of a share in the grandmother's property.
Note: The SC in the SR Batra versus Taruna Batra case had also held a house which was the exclusive property of a mother-in-law could not be said to be a shared household during her lifetime.
Accordingly, Section 4 of the Hindu Adoption and Maintenance Act, any liability in respect of maintenance of daughter-in-law in the vent of the death of the son cannot be fastened upon the self-acquired property of the parents-in-law.

A.It depends on the nature of property. If the property is you mother's self acquired property, a share may not be compulsory. But the child remains entitled to maintenance if not share.
