Yes, she can buy the flat in her name and execute the sale deed through her daughter after registering her daughter as a Special Attorney with specific power.

Drafting is same as in case of other persons. At the time of registration/execution of the document, the contents of the Special PoA document will be read out to the Lady and with the witness of two witnesses, the Registrar will help her sign the Document.
