Sale of flat in mumbai will attract tax. Since your father is selling the same, stamp duty for that will be paid by purchaser.

In case of purchase of flats at Banglore, stamp duty will be required to be paid by the purchaser.

If your father make a gift by cash/cheque of sale proceeds of mumbai flat after payment of taxes to his daughters then that may not attract stamp duty or tax.
