since you were power of attorney holder you had executed sale deed in favour of your wife .

was sale deed duly stamped and registered ? if sale deed was registered your wife would be absolute owner of property. once your wife is absolute owner of property revocation of will by your father wont change legal position .

With proper sale deed(adequately stamped and registered), you dont need to worry about the Will.

when sale is took place through the GPA you need not worry provided, pls look into the GPA, in which is there any clause regarding sale you have empower to sell the property.

In terms of the will made by your father in your favour you had executed the sale deed in favour of your wife in 1997, which was followed by your father evoking the will in 2000. Once the sale deed had already been made by you in favour of your wife the subsequent revocation of the will by your father will not undo the ownership of your wife if the sale deed was properly stamped and registered.
