Hello sir, i had to buy a nearby property (25 cent )which has no record as per resurvey record as he hadn't done the mutation but all other documents to the title is there, since he was relocating and a farm owner was interested in buying the said property i was left with no option rather than buying, But the issue is that the owner 2 block away of said property is also claiming title on this (as per land sale agreement he was having an extra 10 cent, but in physical possession he only have less and he too had constructed wall boundary when he had purchased 4-5 years back) ,and so the appeal i made to grant mutation was rejected as their was a legal dispute to title But both property ( ie the property that i purchased and disputing party property ) which earlier belonged to same family ( brother's ) and the transfer to them was in a joint will ( property which belong to two brothers was mentioned in the one agreement ) so in this situation what can i do, filling a suit will take atleast 8 years for the judgement,is there any other quick way for the dispute resolution

Lawyers are available now to answer your questions.
Mutation does not confer title to property
it is only for payment of property taxes
if there is dispute between parties and
Mutation not done you have to take legal proceedings
if you don’t want to go to court pay adjoining owner some money and arrive at an amicable settlement
If there is a dispute then suit is only way. If there is a chance of settlement then a common settlement deed can be executed with all the legal heirs
- Legally , mutation is not a title document for becoming an owner of the property.
- You can adopt the physical measurement for executing further document in your favour and not the sell agreement .
- Try to settle the dispute amicably , if don't want to approach the court.
hi sir, can u explain on "physical measurement for executing further document "- is there any way to register the property in my name as i had paid almost 75% to the owner, and he is almost 70+ age,if gone for suit it will take time and maybe less chance of him being alive Also there is no point in settlement as i had tried multiple times( demanding 50% of price/cent for 10 cent ),even the staff in muncipal office too had called the disputing party regarding the same,he too know he had no title to said property ,he is a fraud and a advocate too and the staff are little worried as he had blammed the staff that they had taken bribe from me so is there any way to effect the registration - as i need to transfer the title to my name
Approach survey office for carrying out survey of the land
2) mutation would not be done by authorities in view of legal disputes between parties
3) approach court to direct revenue authorities to carry out mutation of property in your name
Any short cut method to solve this problem ill actually not solve the problem permanently.
You may have to approach court of law with a suit for declaration to declare our title.
Hence you may approach this issue with legal provisions and not be any short cut method.
You may not get the property registered to your name as you think it can be.
You may have to approach the seller to execute the registered sale deed to your name, without which no suit for declaring your title would be maintainable.
If he is disputing then you need to go to court under specific relief for registration. But the same will require full payment to be made. You can try your luck through interim relief in the said case
- You can approach the Revenue officer for the survey of the land
- If seller is not agree for executing sale deed in your favor then file suit for specific performance before the court.
