Based on the sharing agreement between Landowner and developer in which total constructed flats would have been demarcated between them.

The owners, based on above, can register the flats which fell to their share, as Donors in favour of their grandchildren, as Donees in the jurisdictional Sub Registrar's Office.

JDA is a common arrangement between landowners and builders. In a JDA, the landowner transfers their development rights to the builder, who constructs a building on the land. The landowner can then choose to keep their share of flats or sell them to buyers. 

Other things to consider when entering into a JDA include: 

Clear communication

Both parties should communicate clearly to ensure the success of the agreement.

Taxation

The taxation of a JDA transaction is different from a capital gains transaction. 

GST

The developer should show the sale of flats allotted to the landowner in their returns, but not in their profit and loss account.

It's important to register a JDA because it prevents the builder and landowner from disputing the agreement's terms and conditions.

It's common to get the JDA notarized or signed on stamp paper worth Rs 200.

If the owner keeps their share of the built-up area, a construction agreement must be made with the developer and registered.

Merely getting the documents notarized won't protect you from future consequences.

You should get a supplementary agreement registered in addition to the main document.

The legal heirs of the property can also enter into the supplementary agreement with the builders and get it registered 

An unregistered joint development agreement is not enforceable in law. 

At this stage you may look for regularisation of existing situation if there's any scheme available.

there are property regularization schemes in Telangana, including the Layout Regularization Scheme (LRS) and the Sada Bainama land registration scheme: 

 The Telangana government has extended an invitation for individuals from the weaker sections, slum dwellers, and low-and middle-income groups to apply for the regularisation of their land used for residential house construction on small parcels. Applications can be submitted at any MEESEVA centre.

You will require a gift deed or will to do the same and get it registered. The supporting documents are title documents in name of your grandmother
