1. If you want to purchase the flat then do so in phased manner. 

2.  So when you make the first payment as earnest money then you do so only on execution of a sale agreement. 

3. Consult an advocate to draft such agreement and check clear title of the property.

An agreement to sell must be made with the seller stating all the issues that may arise. It should be registered. Payment be made and stated in the registered sale deed.

Before giving token money you should have enter into agreement to sell mentioning therein token money, sale consideration, date of repayment of bank loan,  7/12 document and final date of execution and registration of sale Deed.  Money should be given either by cheque or transfer from your bank account.  Be careful. Go ahead only on getting the receipt for 3L and execution of sale agreement so that further acts can be done according to the terms agreed failing which agreement can be enforced legally.   It's better to take the help of local lawyer.

1. There is no 7x12 document of a constructed Flat. 7x12 document is given ONLY for plot of land.

2. AFTER obtaining NOC from lending Bank, Execute a REGISTERED "Agreement to Sale" (not Sale Deed) with proper clauses, Give basic Token only, Clear of Bank Loan, Take Possession immediately and then execute proper Stamp Duty paid Registered Sale Deed.

3. IF above is not possible, THEN do not purchase said property.

Let the advance/earnest of 3 lacs be paid to the seller under a sale agreement. Better you get this sale agreement registered in the SRO office. This sale agreement will be binding both on you and the seller.

- As per law, a  7/12 Extract document is a land record for tax collection purpose and can be produced as a proof to show the possession rights of the land.

- However, this document is not a proof of title of the property , and one cannot transfer the title on the basis of only  7/12. 

- Hence, if the said seller is having a valid sale deed of the flat in his favour , then you can purchase the same. 

- You should enter into an agreement to sell with the seller after mentioning the terms and conditions in details , and if possible registered the same from the office of Registrar .
