If his wife's mother is reported to have died intestate then he properties left behind by her shall devolve on all her own legal heirs, to which his deceased wife is also entitled to an equal share.

This share of property shall be acquired jointly by the husband of the deceased wife and their children

Can he transfer his share of his wife's mother's property to his daughter while both the husband and the daughter are alive.

Yes he can execute a registered release deed relinquishing his rights in her favor.

The property then automatically gets transferred to her name.
