Legal Question in Tax Law in India

our mother passed away leaving an intestate house property. we are three brothers and one sister and have signed and registered a relinquishment deed in favour of one brother on the understanding that he will sell the house property and distribute the consideration money equally amongst all brothers and sister. I would like to know if my brother who will sell the property is only liable to pay capital gain tax or all of us; what will be our tax liability on the money received by us as gift from our brother selling the property.

one brother cannot sell it and it is better if you all file a suit for succession and get a decree in favour of you all to avoid taxable consequences. you my also seek partition of the property by metes and bounds or by sale.
