Minor turned major in joint property - do he need to sign during sale?

A Mother and her daughter jointly own a property. When they bought the property, the daughter was a minor, and her Mother (first buyer) represented her daughter as Minor Guardian.

I see that in all pages of the sale deed, there are two signs of the mother. 

Now they are selling the property, and the daughter has turned major. Now we want to know if this time, will her daughter have to sign the new sale deed and be required to be at the sub-registrar office?

It is not necessary that the sale deed by signed by the buyer. However, sale deed needs to be signed by the vendor(s). Now that your sister is a major, she as well the mother can execute the deed.

When the property was owned jointly daughter was minor so mother as natural guardian of  minor signed on behalf of minor but and now minor has became major so both mother and daughter have to sign on sale deed.
