That can be done only by way of a WILL and not by any other way.

your mother can execute a will in your favour . it takes effect on death of the testator . further it does not attract any stamp duty .

She can execute a conditional settlement deed with the conditions for a life time benefit to her and the property will devolve on the beneficiary after her death.

Will is best option in giving conditions.

If will is executed, has it to be registered? Will there be delay or problem in probating it?

If you anticipate any dispute by getting the property through the WILL, you can prefer the Settlement Deed. You can impose the condition that the possession is handed over but alienation can be done after the demise of your mother.
