In Gujarat only farmer can purchase agricultural land
2) mother in law can execute will bequeathing agricultural land to her daughter in law
3) as far as gift of agricultural land is concerned consult local lawyer
1. There is no bar in getting gift of agricultural land for a non farmer from a family member.
2. So your mother can be gifted with the land but since she is a non farmer she will either have to start farming of the land or sell it off.
3. But in this case your sister's mother in law is not her family member and hence restricted if such restrictions is in place in your state.
First of all your sister's mother in law is a stranger and third person to your mother, hence the proposed gift deed to your mother may not be permitted by the SRO.
Therefore first enquire about that aspect, if it can be permitted then she can acquire the agricultural property despite being a non agriculturist.
- As per law, An agriculturist cannot gift his agricultural land to a non-agriculturist through a WILL or Gift deed .
- However as per the Gujarat High Court, any person, who is an agriculturist in any part of the Country, is deemed to be an Agriculturist in Gujarat, and can buy Agricultural Land in Gujarat.
- Hence, if your mother is having any agriculture land in any part of India ,or has an agriculturist relative, then she cannot get the said agriculture land by way of Gift deed.
- Further , as your sisters mother in law is also a relative of your mother, then by this way she is entitled to get the agriculture land by a registered Gift deed.
Both are illegal.
Agricultural land is Ancestral property which cannot be gifted without the consent of all legal heirs and co- parceners.
A farmer is entitled to have agricultural land in his/her name transferred as Land ceiling Act..
1. Agricultural property CANNOT be Sold /Gifted to a non-agriculturist, under any pretext.

2. However you can circumvent the law, by making the Gift in First name of Sister and Second name of her Mother.
A gift deed hlcan be given. That is no problem. Purchasing an agricultural land may be an issue. But this is a gift deed.
The rules for buying/Transfer agricultural land in Gujarat is very stringent. better consult local property lawyer .
