no there is no percentage of share AS PER THE HINDU SUCCESSION ACT 1956
under section 8 if father died intastate then the self aquired property will divide in class 1 heir equally which include mother wife daughter (2005 amendment by vinita sharma and sujata shrama case) and son.

There is **no separate law that fixes different percentage shares for married and unmarried daughters** in inheritance. Under the **Hindu Succession Act, 1956**, daughters—whether married or unmarried—have **equal rights** as sons to inherit their father’s property as coparceners. Similarly, other personal laws and the Indian Succession Act generally do not discriminate between married and unmarried daughters in inheritance rights.
