you are not entitled for a share in property of your husband during his life time. under DV act you can claim your stridhan and marriage expenses and loss of earnings as compensation.

You are entitled to recovery of your entire istridhan (i.e. whatever your parents gave you and also whatever was given by your husband and his relatives / friends). You may also claim compensation under D.V.A.
