Respected Experts......Good Evening
Please suggest in the below matter
One Chandram, S/o late Munaya, had two sons viz., (1) Babu Rao; (2) Mohan Rao and a daughter by name Manikyam. residing in andhra pradesh.
Here Babu Rao had 3sons Kumar, Ramu, Krishna...and wife by name Kamala. Except their younger son Krishna, Babu Rao and other 2 sons went to other area for their livelyhood as migrant labourers.
Chandrayya had landed property of 0.32cents and out of that extent he donated 0.03cents to the Government for formation of Road, and afterwords 0.29 cents left with him. After his death said landed property was devolved to Babu Rao and his brother Mohan Rao, Later they both shared said land in the ratio of 0.14cents and 0.15 respectively, and as per their oral partition they were in peaceful posession and enjoyment of their shares. Later on Mohan Rao was in need of money and sold away his share to the wife of Babu Rao, since said purchase she was in peaceful posession of 0.15 cents. Their Son Krishna was indebted in the village, as the situations stands so one Kamayya had ill will to get the property in any manner. Arranged one Sahu to purchase and convinced the Krishna and his mother kamala to sell away the property to clear the debt in the village. So they both executed a regd. sale infavour of sahu, later Kamayya again purchsed said proper from sahu in the last year. When Babu Rao and other two sons came to village they got knowledge of the unauthorised sale by Kamala and Krishna.
In this Case what is the remidy available to Babu Rao and his other 2 sons Kumar and Ramu.....
Under what provision they can file a suit? against whom? under which section they have to pay court fee....

Currently I am working in SBI as an Officer. I was made a scapegoat by my superiors in a theft case, unfortunately leading to my suspension on 26 September 2025. As advised in the order, I request for an appeal within 45 days of Suspension. I requested the Bank to provide the supporting documents and CCTV footage to prove my innocence, which they did not respond till date.However I have not been issued any chargesheet in connection with the case. After 5 months from the date of suspension, I received a Review order on 21 February 2026 where it was mentioned that the suspension order shall continue. Should I move to HC to file petition against the suspension order??

Respected Experts,
I seek legal guidance regarding acquisition of my NA land having commercial potential in Nashik, Maharashtra.
The land is affected by a 45-meter Development Plan (DP) road. Recently, Nashik Municipal Corporation has issued a notice asking us to surrender the affected portion of land in exchange for TDR. No proposal for monetary compensation has been offered.
We have been informed orally that NMC does not have funds to pay cash compensation and that landowners must accept TDR only. No formal acquisition proceedings under Section 126 of the Maharashtra Regional and Town Planning Act, 1966 have been initiated so far.
Ready Reckoner rate of the land is approximately ₹31,000 per sq. meter, and the road widening is being expedited in view of Kumbh 2027.
My queries are:
1. Can the Municipal Corporation legally compel landowners to accept TDR instead of monetary compensation?
2. If landowners refuse TDR, is the authority bound to initiate compulsory acquisition under Section 126 MRTP Act read with RFCTLARR Act, 2013?
3. Can the authority take possession without completing acquisition proceedings and paying compensation?
4. If we approach the Bombay High Court seeking direction to initiate acquisition and pay compensation, are such writ petitions generally entertained at pre-acquisition stage?
5. Is lack of funds a legally valid ground to deny cash compensation?
We are willing to cooperate for public purpose but want lawful acquisition and fair compensation.
Kindly guide.

Respected Learned Expert, I am retired Central Government servant. During the service period, I had undergone suspension for a criminal case which has been acquitted thereafter. The Competent Authority is pleased to pass an order to regularise the suspension period as follows: "period of suspension from 03.07.2008 to 31.03.2009 shall be converted into leave of any kind due and admissible as per FR 54-b(7) read with FR-54-B(5)". Thereafter, the subordinate authority has treated the period as EOL. Whether, I am entitle for annual increment based on the above order. Any other monetary benefits is applicable to me. Kindly clarify please. With utmost thanks to one and all in the Forum of Learned Experts.
Dear Sirs,
I wish to send a legal notice asking the tenant to vacate from the rented space.
Is it necessary to send the legal notice through a lawyer only?
Can I send the legal notice without a lawyer? Does it have legal validity when I file a civil suit later?
Thank you, sirs.
Regards,
Kihusu Dethro

Hello. Is it legal for a person to give recommendation on stock buying and selling in lieu of a part of the profit? For example, if a stock adviser provides his stock buying recommendation on the condition that at the end of the month a fixed per percentage of the profit made from those recommendations will be shared with him: will this be legal under Indian laws?
Thanks in advance.

"The following are the terms of an agreement signed by both the First Party and the Second Party. The First Party’s son has signed as the first witness, but there is no second witness. The agreement is unregistered. Regarding the property mentioned as security in this agreement, although a preliminary decree for partition has been obtained from the Munsiff Court, the final partition through a Commission has not yet taken place. That is to say, no party has gained physical possession of their specific share of the land. Due to this reason, the monthly installments have not been paid. In such a situation, will this agreement be legally valid or enforceable if taken to court?"
​Terms and Conditions
​Disputes regarding the properties sold by the First Party to the Second Party via Power of Attorney (Document No: .......) have been settled hereby by fixing a compensation amount of ₹15,00,000/- (Rupees Fifteen Lakhs only), which the Second Party has accepted and agreed to.
​It is hereby resolved and agreed that the First Party shall pay the aforementioned ₹15,00,000/- to the Second Party.

Such registration is strictly for security purposes only. Upon payment of the said amount by the First Party to the Second Party, the aforementioned properties must be returned to the First Party via Sale Deed or Release Deed.
​It is mutually decided and agreed that the First Party shall pay the said amount to the Second Party in installments as convenient; however, the payment shall not be less than ₹6,000/- per month under any circumstances.
​Both parties hereby affirm that these matters were discussed and decided personally between them in their capacity as elder sister and younger brother. This agreement is based on a proposal reached through voluntary discussion, without any external influence, compulsion, threat, or coercion from anyone.
​It is strictly resolved and agreed that the Power of Attorney required to register the Release Deed—concerning the properties belonging to the First Party and ordered to be partitioned/allotted to the First Party by the Munsiff Court in Case No. O.S. .......—shall be registered by the First Party in the name of the Second Party’s son (.....) within 7 days from today.
​It is strictly resolved and agreed that the Second Party shall not initiate any legal proceedings immediately under this agreement and shall grant the First Party time to make the payment. Until such time, the Second Party shall hold and enjoy the security properties in their possession.
​All disputes regarding the aforementioned matter are hereby settled and compromised. It is strictly resolved and agreed that there shall be no further disputes between the younger brother and elder sister, and they shall move forward maintaining a harmonious family life.

SIRS,
WHETHER EXEMPTION U/S 56(2) IS APPLICABLE FOR GIFT DEED IN GUJARAT FOR GIFTING IMMOVABLE PROPERTY TO A SPOUSE.
Banking related
Sir ji,
Regarding the pending complaint with axis bank, as advised by veterans, I decided to give up and close my credit card account which has a balance of Rs. 511 (out of which Rs.500 unauthorised; and bank failed to reverse it; despite complaint lodged and Rs.11 is paid by me on card)
Now the bank closed my credit card on 23.02.2026 (officially sent the communication by mail and it was confirmed in the appalso)' upon my written request on 20.02.2026, but sending a message, (in different tone) that it will be reported to CIBIL only after clearing the balance. Now the bank fails to send DD for the credit balance, and not reporting to CIBIL.
This axis is giving discomfort even after closing the card account relationship.
Please guide me how to handle this. how safe if not reported to CIBIL. or can a bank remain silent by not reporting when the card account is closed.
Now how to proceed. (please don't mind to advise and do not consider this as repated query)
