It seems your mother can mutate the property in her name.
Mutation is the process of changing the ownership of a property from one person to another when the property gets transferred. It is an important process in transaction of land. It is done in revenue or civic office, as the State decides.
By mutating a property, the new owner gets the property recorded on his name, property details will be updated in the records.
In Kerala State, the following records are needed for mutating a property in the revenue office records:-
• Application for mutation with stamp affixed
• Current & previous property deeds
• New sale deed/gift deed/settlement deed/family relation certificate & death certificate/ other such documents, as the case be
• Affidavit on stamp paper of requisite value
• Receipt of up-to-date property tax payment
• Address proof – Ration Card
• Identity Proof – Aadhaar Car

1. Where is the property located?
2. Whether the property is ancestral or self acquired of her father?
3. Why did you prefer to remain an "anonymous" author when you know that such persons are not obliged by experts as per rules of this platform?
4. Consult a local prudent lawyer with full facts and document for proper analyses, guidance and proceeding.

You don’t need to pay registration charges as if in a purchase. What is going to take place is only mutation in which you are transferring the property ownership in the registry of land records. You have to pay some nominal fee for mutation.
You may please contact the appropriate authority in your state - revenue or civic. In Kerala it is being done in the revenue office. The officer will tell you the appropriate procedure to be followed.
