You are only owner of the land but not the house constructed on said land 

 

the sale  deed mentions only that land has been sold to you but not the structure built on said land

You can demolish house with the consent of owner of the house 

 

seller would continue to remain owner of house till he has sold it or created third party rights on said house

Yes being the land owner, you becomes the owner of the house present on the land also and you can use the land as per your requirement

Logically and legally land will be of no use to use if you can not use it as per your requirement. This could have been done if it would have been a lease, but since the land has been sold to you therefore it becomes your absolute right to use the same.

1.  Land purchase means all associated things /appurtenances etc.... are purchased with the land and you are entitled to use /demolish /rebuild /whatever,  PROVIDED rebuilding permission is duly taken from the local municipal /panchayat offices.

You are not the owner of house as only land has been sold to you 

 

it it is always advisable to mention details of house built on said land in the sale deed 

 

relevant details like the number of rooms, the number of balconies, plot area and construction area among other things are mentioned in the sale deed

You have purchased that proeprty  consisting of land and house, the land alone cannot be sold when ther is a structure existing in it. If there was no mention about the house in it then it is an error, it can be rectified by executing a registered rectification deed..

The vendor cannot claim the house built on the land which has been sold to you. It should be an error, hence you ask the vendor to rectify the same by executing a registered rectification deed

You were advised to approach the vendor to get the rectification deed executed, if he refuses then you may file a suit agaisnt him for specific relief in which you can demand the rectification deed as a relief, let the court decide about the factual position and you will get all your doubts clarified by the judgment that the court may pass on this.
