You can file a petition before the appropriate court through your mother to appoint your mother as lawful manager and guardian of your father who is ill for the management and sale of his properties. You father will be asked to undergo medical examination by a panel of doctors to confirm his sickness. Thereafter court will give an order to your mother being appointed as the manager and guardian of your sick father. Thereafter she can sell the property on behalf of your father. In case you any further assistance, you may contact me.

Ancestral property is defined as the property whose title has not changed for last 4 generations i.e. from great grandfather to great grandson without being interrupted by any partition/settlement/sale/gift deed or will. If it is not so, then it is not an ancestral property.
If the property is in your father’s name not comes under the definition of ancestral property. Registration act clause 5 says about Registration or acceptance for deposit at private residence.
Registration or acceptance for deposit at private residence In ordinary cases the registration or deposit of documents under this Act shall be made only at the office of the officer authorized to accept the same for registration or deposit: PROVIDED that such officer may on special cause being shown attend at the residence of any person desiring to present a document for registration or to deposit a will, and accept for registration or deposit such document or will.

If your father could not put the signature then he may make the thump impression in the presence of registrar in the document.
