your parents are your well wishers . they must be worried about you since you are single and not married and staying on your own . these issues are not resolved by restraining orders . involve family elders and try to arrive at an amicable solution .

settle amicably and if not possible then live separately.

Think from your mothers angle. She might be worried. Talk to her softly and find out what worries her. If you want to stay separately, stay in a near by locality.
Why you want to stay separately but...

Staying away separately & amicably is not working , so is there any legal way to do this, since they are old i am ready to pay maintenance per month also but for my peace of mind want to reside in a separate place.Is there any provision in law.

You can always stay separately from them. Neither law prohibits this nor does it permits. Law is neutral regarding this.
You have to talk to them and sort it out and reach a solution. You can convince them that you are taking care of financial liabilities for them too and need to reside peacefully. Make them understand this. But be soft and humble. They are after all your parents and always your well wishers.

A major citizen of India has constitutional rights to lead and live his /her life as per his/her choice.
So law does not confer 'right upon parents to force their major children to live with them' and it is also reciprocally true as well that law dos not confer 'right upon major children to live in home owned by their parents'.
So as of right you can have a restrain order of the nature visulised but cops and baliff would be struggling hard with their bats facing guggly of your mother if she despite restrain order still continues to do so.
your friends can sue her for defamation.
You are liable to maintain them.
But this is all about law.
The practical solution is that live at an address unknown to your mother.
