Girl children right on dad`s gift property

My father-in-law's mother gave him a property as a gift. With her own money, her mother used to purchase that property. That property was given to my father-in-law. My father-in-law has three children, and he gave a gift to one of them without telling the others. In accordance with the Supreme Court's ruling in Civil Appeal No. Diary No.32601 of 2018, may I know if we can claim this property as ancient property? Please share your insightful comments.
