A Correct answer
Explanation

Under the Hindu Succession Act 1956, coparcenary property devolves by succession (not survivorship) upon the death of a coparcener. The 1956 Act abolished the traditional Mitakshara survivorship rule for most cases. Coparcenary property can be partitioned, so options C and D are incorrect.
