There are two types of sucession. 1- testamentary Sucession. In such succession the property devolves as per the Will of the deceased. Will require to be executed in the court of law and those who are not benefeciary in the Will can raise objection if ther is any foul play by the executor.

2-Inteate Sucession- in such sucession person died without executing any will and property devolve as per sucession law.

Now daughters are at par with sons as far as the devolving of property is concern in case of testamantary sucession.

In your case if Will has properly been executed in favour of son, daughters will have no share at all.
