You may claim half the share in the sale proceed of the house but your husband will dispute it and agree for the % contribution you made in purchase of the house.
If you both agree amicably with regard to % share in the house sale amount that will be better otherwise this dispute may take long time in civil litigation on this issue.

Legally how much money I should get from the sale proceeds ?

If you and your husband are co-owners of flat then you can claim 50% share in flat irrespective �f that your husband has paid all instalments,it hardly matters who paid the instalments.
