Any gain Long term or short term is taxable. So LTCG by your mother is taxable along with other sources of income. To avoid, there are sections giving benefit depending upon type of capital assets.

For senior citizen, basic exemption limit is Rs. 3,00,000. Therefore, your mother is not required to pay any LTCG.

Share of property received is 2.60 lakhs. From that deduct indexed value of property. You get long term capital gain amount. In the absence of other income sources, yout such income will remain below 3 lakhs threshold limit and hence tax payable will be nil. No tax.
