Your daughters are not required in this transaction as long as you are the sole title holder. From the facts stated by you it is amply clear that this is not an ancestral property either. Hence yours daughters are not required.

The buyer is asking for wrong this. The consent of your daughters are not at all required nor they are required to be made party to the sale deed.

This property is your exclusive property in which your daughters have no share in it,

So convince the buyer , else change to another buyer.

The buyer's demand is unjustified. Once the property was gifted to you, it becomes your own absolute property in which nobody can claim a right or share. The buyer appears to be too cautious and refuses to understand the law of the land. You may look for another buyer, drop this one.There is no necessity to obtain NOC or consent from your daughters.

1. What the buyer is saying is preposterous. During your lifetime your children have no share in the property which was gifted to you. You are at liberty during your lifetime to sell, gift or will your property to anyone you desire.

2. If your daughters are willing to sign the sale deed then you may go ahead with the sale, else find another buyer who talks sensibly.
