If the property is the self-acquired property of Mr. X, then all the first class heirs i.e. the wife of X, and two sons will inherit the properties in equal share. Whether any person is married, or handicapped will not be taken into consideration.
After such inheritance, if the mother (widow of X) wishes then she can give her share to the handicapped. The married son cannot object to the same.

After the death all the properties of the deceased vests with the legal heirs and all of them are entitled to their shares as per law. There is no distinction whether one is settled and other is not.
