As per your query ...

Definitely, the mother can file an application under the Senior Citizen Maintenance Act seeking maintenance for herself. She can either file the said application herself or in case she is incapable, through any person or Organization duly authorized by her.

Simultaneously she can file a suit to recover the possession of shop back from her son.

If it is a self acquired property, she can either Gift it to any one she is willing to, or make a will for the said shop.

Yes. In fact there are other laws also which helps you. You can file petition under section 125 of CrPC for maintenance and proceeding under protection and women from domestic violence act. You rock solid case and you shall be entitled to recover the rent of your property also and also directions against tenant for depositing rent with you and not with your son. Please contact for further details.
