Answer and explanation
Correct answer B
Rule 2 of Section 10 of the Hindu Succession Act, 1956 states: "The surviving sons and daughters and the mother of the intestate shall each take one share." Rule 1 gives the widow, or all the widows together, one share, and Rule 3 gives the heirs in the branch of each pre-deceased son or daughter one share between them. Rule 4 then governs how that share is divided within each branch.
