DISTRIBUTION ACT 1958 FAQ-2

What happens when someone dies without making a will and there is no spouse?
If an intestate dies with no spouse but issue and a parent or parents, the surviving issue shall be entitled to two- thirds of the estate and the parent or parents the remaining one third.
In such a situation, the children are entitled to 2/3 of the property and the parents will get 1/3.
