succession for property

Section 8 would make it clear that the properties would go to the brother.

8.        General Rules of succession in the case of males.

The property of a male Hindu dying intestate shall devolve according to the provisions of this Chapter-

(a)       (a) firstly, upon the heirs, being the relatives specified in class I of the Schedule;

(b)      (b) Secondly, if there is no heir of class I, then upon the heirs, being the relatives specified in class II of the Schedule;

(c)      (c)  thirdly, if there is no heir of any of two classes, then upon the agnates of the deceased; and

(d) lastly , if there is no agnate, then upon the cognates of the deceased.

I agree with Y.Prakash. After the death of x and his wife properties will go to class I & II legal heirs,

 is it necessary that brother's daughter should be unmarried??
