Legal Question in Real Estate Law in India

HINDU SUCCESSION (AMENDMENT) ACT 2005

"On and from the commencement of the Hindu Succession (Amendment) Act, 2005, in a Joint Hindu family governed by the Mitakshara law, the daughter of a coparcener shall,- (a) by birth become a coparcener in her own right in the same manner as the son; (b) have the same rights in the coparcenary property as she would have had if she had been a son"

Please any one can explain me about "coparcenary property" as per the above law in respect to women's rights over property. Is that women has to be 4th generation (That is property should pass from her great grand father). Otherwise her father can dispose to any one of his choice as per self acquired nature. Thanks.
