  @RaunakThakar clear your question on what you want. Married or unmarried. Title unmarried and body married. I have rolled back it to your original to clear this doubt because if you want unmarried then body has to be changed!

Your title initially was asking for unmarried girls.And my answer is for that query. If you are asking about married ladies then this question is an exact duplicate of :Who should do Antim Sanskar (funeral rites) of married woman?

For Unmarried girls:

According to Baudhayana such women should NOT be cremated. But at the same time it also says that some people do perform last rites for such women.

See the following verses:

Among people belonging to the same ancestry, the relationship based on
common ancestry extends to the seventh generation. 3

Only a bath is prescribed when a child dies before it is seven months
old or before teething. 4 When a child dies before it is 3 years old
or before teething, no offerings of food or water are prescribed, and
it should not be cremated.

5 The same is true when unmarried girls die.

6 Some do perform these rites for married women, 7but they do it
just to curry favour with people; ritual formulas are thought not to
apply to women.

Baudhayana Dharma Sutras 1.11.11.1-7

And, should not be cremated means they have to be buried.

For married women:

Having cremated a becoming wife, dead before, with the fire of the
vessel, one should get himself re-married without delay [and
consecrate the Fire again]. (5)

A twice-born person, who is conversant with religious laws, should
cremate a good-charactered wife of the same caste, who dies before,
with the sacrificial vessel according to the Agnihotra- method. (6)

One who, having his first wife living, cremates the second wife with
the Vaitanika is equal to the destroyer of a Brahmana. (7)

Katyayana Smriti Chapter 20

So, for married ladies their husbands do the final rites. In husband's absence it is the sons who do.
