There is no bar of grandmother adopting her granddaughter, if she has no surviving daughter.

definitely she can adopt..go on no tension

R.Ramachandran (Expert) 22 September 2011
Since the widow has already two living daughters, she cannot adopt any daughter. This is directly hit by the provisions of Section 11 (ii) of the Hindu Adoptions and Maintenanct Act, 1956.
