Yes your sister is entitled for share in ancestral property

No She don't have any rights in respect of ancestral property. Hindu Sucession Amendment act, 1990 is invalidated the married daughters rights on ancestral property.

After the amendment to Hindu Succession act daughter is coparcener, she is entittle for the share.

I agree with Mr. Desai.

Dear Mr. Vardali and Mr. Ganeshan, please read the amendment act pertaining to Karnataka.
the daughters are no way entitled to shares in the ancestral property as she was married before 1994.

If she is married before 1994 she is not entitled to get right over ancestral property. By considering her age and widow hood you can decide whether you want to share the property with her or not.

My learned Members Manish and Uma,
Yes it is Karnataka state amendment, but central act has been amended sec 8 of the hindu succession act. Daughters are the coparceners they got rights by birth. Hence daughters are entittled to the share even they are married in 1994
