A.Dear Client,
As per Hindu law of inheritance, children got the right to the property of their parents by birth. Your father sold out the inherited property of your grandfather and bought a property in the name of your mother who can dispose of that property either by a Will or by gift to her children who are the sole legal heirs and classified as Class-1 heirs under the Hindu Succession Act, 1956. Post your mother's demise, and in case she has not executed any testamentary document(WILL), the property would be divided equally among Class I heirs. As per the amendment of the Act in 2005, Class I heirs of a female dying intestate would be her husband and children. Thus, upon her demise, the property would be divided between her children and husband (if alive) equally.
