As per the laws in India laid down related to the rights of adopted children, a child once adopted is considered to be a child of the adoptive family and all tied with his/her previous family cease to exist except with regard to prohibitions of marriage and property inherited by the child.
Adopted children have the right to inherit property from their adoptive parents. He is entitled to the property of his adopted parents in the same capacity as a natural heir to the property of the adoptive parents would be. In your case, even though there exists a biological child of the adopted parents, the adopted child would be entitled to equal share in the property of his adopted parents, in the absence of a will.
Therefore, in the absence of a will, the property of the person would be divided between his biological and adopted child.
