Manual seem pretty clear about requiretty:

Quote:
requiretty
If set, sudo will only run when the user is logged in to a real tty. When this flag is
set, sudo can only be run from a login session and not via other means such as
cron(8) or cgi-bin scripts. This flag is off by default.
No mention of password prompting here so it looks like you must be on a tty with this.

Note that the requiretty default requirement could be relaxed just for your particular script (/bank/karunix/bin/build_cycles.sh), so no need to open everything else up.
