My father wants to sell a house which he constructed in 1994 , Can he invest the amount in any other property after calculating the long term capital gain through indexation to save on tax since he is already a CO OWNER in 3 flats with my brothers.

Yes, your father can claim exemption from Long term capital gain u/s-54 of the Income Tax Act 1961, if he invests LTCG amount in a residential house property.

In case of sale of house property, the rate of LTCG tax is 20%, even if you do not claim indexation benefit.
