Respected Sir
My father purchased a plot of land in 1991. The area of the plot of land as prescribed in registry was 997 sq.ft=92.62 sqm. The plot of land was duly registered. What when the plot of land was measured it is 902 sqft instead of 997 sqft. My father said the same to the seller but he refused the same. After that my father struck in the life difficulties (they became busy in the family problems) and could not take any action against this. We all were small at that time. But now we want to recover the same or compensation. The person who sold the same is dead at present. Is any possibility to recover the same and what actions are available against this. Does Law of Limitation bar this.
Looking forward your expert advice

After more than 20 years of the transaction, nothing can be done now. At best you have to compare the measurement on four sides of the plot with reference to the one mentioned in the document. Find out where the difference occurs. It may be a case where the neighbours might have encroached. In any case, it is too late in the day for you to do anything.
