How to rectify sale deed in this case?
Hi,
I know this question has been repeated many times, but I am not clear in my case what has to be done.
17 years ago, my father had purchased two plots from a company ABC limited, through an intermediate person who was given power of attoerney by ABC limited. Registration was completed and sale deed was in our hand and full payment was done and things were settled. 3 years later when we approached to apply for mutation, the officer told us that there is mistake is the sale deed and some names are mismatching, and it has to be rectified. Later as my father had to go to some other place on deputation, this process was stalled. Now, 2 years ago when we initiated the process again, we failed to get in touch with the intermediate person. We could not find that person at the address reported by him. Since that time mobile phones did not exist for a common man, we did not have his contact info. The company ABC is dissolved and does not exists anymore.
But in this process, plus point was, we figured out what was the mistake. In the sale deed it was mentioned two plots belongs to two different survey number, but as a matter of fact it belonged to a single survey number. So this information has to be corrected. I am not sure about the measurement info whether it is proper (assuming it is proper as before purchasing surveyor's help was taken).
Now the question arises, how to rectify the sale deed so that we can get it completely on our name when the seller (company ABC limited) does not exists anymore and intermediate person is not traceable? I am ready to go through legal process. Can someone explain me in detail, what all steps need to be taken to get it on our name.
Thanks & Regards

Thank you all for your replies.
@Yogendra Singh: I thought there was (is) no limitation. Is there any specific time limit for that?
@All: What is the criteria for filing a suit in a civil court under the Specific Relief Act?
