Did you get a a sale certificate from the authorised person from bank? Rule 9(9) states that the authorised officer shall deliver the property to the buyer free from all encumbrances known to the secured creditor or not known to the secured creditor.Rule 8(4) indicates that where possession is taken by the authorised officer before issuance of sale certificate under Rule 9, the authorised officer shall take steps for preservation and protection of secured assets till they are sold or otherwise disposed of.The authorized officer is to deliver the property to the purchaser free from encumbrances in terms of Rule 9(9).The physical possession can be taken by the Bank by following the procedure laid down in Section 14 or after the sale is confirmed.

The delivery of the site is the duty of the Bank. Banks to directly take possession of the secured asset under Section 13(4) of the SARFAESI Act and sell secured asset without the interference of Courts or the DRT.

Section 13(4) of the NPA Act proceeds on the basis that the borrower, who is under a liability, has failed to discharge his liability within the period prescribed under Section 13(2), which enables the secured creditor to take recourse to one of the measures, namely, taking possession of the secured assets including the right to transfer by way of lease, assignment or sale for realizing the secured assets.

As the borrowers have failed to discharge their liability in full within the period of sixty days from the date of notice, the secured creditors have exercised their right under sub-section (4) of Section 13 of the SARFAESI Act to take possession of the secured assets of the borrowers. once the secured creditor issues a notice to a borrower to take possession of a secured asset and the borrower despite such notice, transfers the possession of the secured asset by way of lease to a lessee without prior consent of the secured creditor, the lessee of such a lease is bound to surrender possession of the secured asset to the secured creditor.

In your case the remedy is

1. issue legal notice to bank to hand over physical possession to you.

2. If the bank is not act positively approach the DRT file application against the bank to direct to deliver possession of the site.

civil court for damages

As per Sale Certificate you have become owner but you are not in legal possession ( though not actual possession).

You should issue a lawyer's notice to the Bank that possession should be delivered so that you can use and enjoy the property. You can also publish a public notice stating that title has passed to you and nobody should disturb your possession. Your case is that you are in legal possession but not in actual possession.The remedy is to file a lawsuit for eviction if the legal notice does not produce the desired result.

You have to issue legal notice to the vendor demanding him to handover vacant possession of the property bought. If the authorised officer of the bank is not responding you may file a suit against him under specific relief act seeking direction to hand over physical vacant possession and also cost for mental agony.

An "as is where is sale" is often misconstrued by bankers. As per sale deed bank should have handed over to you the plot of land (open space of land devoid of fixtures and attachments). Since the sale is through sarfesai act, issue notices to bank for vacant possession of land and also ask for mesne profits(rents for cell tower from sale certificate date till to date). Then file an eviction notice to the cell tower operator. If no reply within 30 days file a suit. You will win the case hands down and courts will decide in your favour within 90 days.

1) The authorized officer is like a court receiver under Order XL Rule 1 Civil Procedure Code. He can take either symbolic possession and in appropriate cases he can take actual possession also. There is no dichotomy between symbolic and physical possesIon.

2) he can sell the property without taking physical possession

No. He should first take symbolic possession and then actual possession. Sale without possession is invalid in eyes of law.

when a charge is created over the property, it is deemed that any transaction during such period of charge is null and void and therefore the law assumes that physical possession is deemed to be with the authorized officer when it is put to sale.

1. No. With out taking physical possession of the mortgaged property, the A.o. can not arrange to sell the same,

2. He has to apply before the DM u/s14 of SARFAESI Act,2002 for taking possession of the said property for selling the same to recover the outstanding dues of the Borrower.

Symbolic possession will be sufficient for the authorised officer to bring the property under auction and can sell it to the highest bidder as per auction held. He will not be bothered about the physical possession of the property, the headache will lie on the bidder to vacate the occupant. Hence it is always advisable to settle the full consideration amount only after confirmation of physical possession of the bank

The answer is yes.
