At the time of sale of the house by your mother there would be long term capital Gains that will arise due to the difference between the sale proceeds and the Indexed cost of aquisation of the property.
The tax is payable on the Capital Gain but this can be avoided if she invests the proceeds in the approved schemes under the IT Act. The tax liability would be on your mother as she is selling the property and would transfer the funds later as per her wish.
