Ma’am, as a daughter, you are legally entitled to an equal share in your father's property under the Hindu Succession (Amendment) Act, 2005. If your father passed away after this amendment, you can file a civil suit in court for your rightful share. Gather necessary documents like property records and your relationship proof. It is advisable to consult a family lawyer to guide you through the legal process and help with filing the case. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
