A small prayer was also held by Mangeshkar's family at the site.
Fans of the singer and residents in Nashik also gathered around at the Goda Ghat to pay tributes to the melody queen.
"She (Lata) was not my sister, but mother. All the rituals have been performed on an auspicious muhurat," PTI quoted Usha Mangeshkar as saying.
