Suit value for recovery of possession

Anjul Kumar Jana (Querist) 31 October 2014 This query is : Resolved
Sir(s)/Madam(s),
This is a suit for declaration and injunction and alternatively prayed for recovery of possession. The land to be recovered is not assessed and for which appointment of surveyor commissioner is also prayed. Once plaintiff's predecessor sold a certain portion of the schedule property but since then defendant has acquired more than that. Hence the suit for the recovery of excess portion.
Now queries are :
1. What should be the Suit Value?
2. Which provision of Court Fees Act is required to file and how should I assess the Court fee in this case?
3. Whether admission of not in possession by the Plaintiff should be the demerits of this case?
