Now who will his death certificate or police certificate would suffice - mutation of some property to done his heir name. Please let me know whole procedure.
Quick Summary
If someone has been missing for over seven years and a police report has been filed, you can apply for a death certificate. The police will issue a certificate confirming they could not find the person. This certificate, along with a civil suit for declaration filed in the relevant jurisdiction, can be used to declare the missing person deceased. This court decree will then allow for the mutation of property into the heir's name.

You have to file a Civil Suit for Declaration seeking a declaration that your mother, on account of being missing and untraceable for more than 7 years, may be treated as deceased. If the last known residence of the person, and considering the area of the FIR, you would have to approach the Civil Court of that jurisdiction.

You need to file suit for declaration and get declaratory decree from court regarding missing person and that degree will serve your purpose.

Consult and engage a local prudent lawyer to file a declaratory suit in terms of section 107 of Indian Evidence Act, 1872 as advised by experts herein above, which I fully agree with them.
