You may either register a combination of release deed and gift deed to give away your rights in the said property during your life time to your daughter-in-law or You may make a WILL by mentioning that the said property shall go to your daughter-in-law after your death.

If the nomination was signed by your deceased husband and son, check if society agreeing to enter your daughter in laws name as comember on basis of nomination. My advice would be to retain the property in your name (your rights remain as 1/3rd original share + proportionate rights inherited from your husband and son). You can execute a regiatered will, wherein she can be a legatee in respect of your revised share. It will also depend if your husband and son have any other heirs. So opt for best option after consultation
