Half share may go to your grand step mother and out of the remaining half all the five of you may share equally. However, advice of a local lawyer may be better.

Dear Sir / Madam,

If your grandfather had two wives, each wife will be entitled to half share of the husband's property. The grand step mother will continue to have her 50% share of the property while she is alive. The other 50% of the property in the name of your mother, will first vest in your father if he is alive. Only thereafter, the legal heirs (five children) will be able to exercise their rights in the property.

Regards,
