It seems that you did not perform the due diligence test prior to purchasing the land. Had due diligence been done at the time of purchasing the land it would have unfolded all the facts which have transpired now.

Has the sale deed been registered? If yes, you are the legal owner of this land. On the basis of sale deed apply for mutation now.

Ramesh sold the Property to Mukesh, Mukesh executed a GPA to Ajay and you have purchased from Ajay. In this case There must be an entry of sale transaction in EC for having sold by Ramesh to Mukesh. Similarly the entry of registered GPA also should reflect in EC for having executed a GPA in favour of Ajay. Subsequently a Sale transaction from Ajay to you should appear in EC. Apply for an up to date ECIn this process get the RTC and Mutation updated in the revenue records.

Mutation is the recording of a transfer of title of a property from one person to another in the revenue records. The documentation procedure to be followed and the fee payable vary from State to State. The mutation in the municipal records is for the purpose of payment of property tax, and it does not mean a legal title for the person in whose name the property has been mutated in the municipal records

.Details to be furnished with application:

>> Area in which the right has been acquired

>> Description of the right acquired

>> Name, parent's name, and address of the person from whom the right has been acquired

>> Manner in which the right has been acquired

>> Name, parent's name, and address of the person who has acquired the right

>> Date on which the right was acquired

>> Copy of document on the basis of which the mutation is sought - sale deed, Will etc

A proclamation is issued inviting objections to the proposed mutation and specifying the date, not less than 15 days from the date of the proclamation, up to which any objection to the mutation will be entertained. The Patwari submits his report in the prescribed format. The statements of the parties are recorded. The contents of the documents are matched with the recorded statements. In case no objections against the proposed mutation are received, it is sanctioned.

if land was sold by registered sale deed by Ramesh to Mukesh then copy must be in registrar office . it must have been misplaced . you have to hire services of some agent to find those papers . it is surprising that there is no mention of deal 1 in deal 2 . generally in recitals of sale deed complete history is mentioned .

The antecedent title of a property is always mentioned in sale deed. So if Ramesh sold the land to Mukesh this fact ought to have been mentioned in the Power of Attorney which Mukesh made in favour of Ajay. It must be lying in the registrar's office. Avail the services of an agent to obtain it. Obtaining a document from the registrar office is more often than not an uphill task but with diligent efforts it can be obtained.
