A.Dear Sir,
Yes, after the death of the person executed, the POA automatically gets cancelled. You being the legal heir of your mother you can sell the property by producing death certificate saying that you have inherited her property rights also.

A.Dear Client!

It's true that if the person dies, then POA issued by that person also dies.

I assume that you are from Mumbai.

If the plot is in individual name, then you need to file the Letter of Administration of Estate from High Court at Bombay to get the property transfered in your name. If you are outside Mumbai, then you can approach the reapective district court.
