If your son wants to transfer the property on his name to his mother name by executing a registered gift deed, since he is not able to visit India for this purpose, he can execute a SPA deed in your favor.
You can get it adjudicated before the local sub registrar and then can execute a registered gift deed in favor of your wife on his behalf on the basis of the special power of attorney in your favor.
You can execute the gift deed there as well as you can get it attested through high commission or Indian embassy but you have to register it in India.

2. You shall have to place the said POA along with the envelope carrying the said POA which has been delivered by the Courier to the local Collector and get the POA stamped by depositing Rs.50/-.
3. Based on the above vetted POA ehich has been signed abroad, you can now register a gift deed conveying the title of your son on the property in favour of his mother based on the said POA.
