Answer and explanation

Correct answer C

Section 26 of the Hindu Succession Act, 1956 disqualifies "children born to him or her after such conversion and their descendants" from inheriting from their Hindu relatives, "unless such children or descendants are Hindus at the time when the succession opens". Being Hindu at that time removes the bar entirely; there is no partial inheritance of movables.
