  • The 2005 central amendment to the Hindu Succession Act of 1956 gives the daughters a right to equal share as that of the sons in the properties of a deceased coparcener.
  • But, in the process, it ends up reducing the quantum of property to which the widow and the mother would be entitled to in their capacity as Class I legal heirs.
  • This 1956/ 2005 law is applicable to Hindus, Sikhs, Jains, and Buddhists, where a man has died without a will.
