What exactly you want to convey by posting: The land is not registered.

'Buyer Beware' applies to property deals.
It shall be appropriate to get proper legal opinion from a very able local senior counsel of unshakable repute and integrity specializing in revenue/property/civil matters before signing or making payment.
This may cost some FEE but can defend long term interest and hard earned monies.

What is the opinion of your own counsel on payment in cash!

What is meant by unregistered land?

If the property can not be registered / owner does not have clear marketable title of it, avoid purchasing such land. Your hard earned money would be in risk.

Coming to your questions:

1. Such cash transaction is not permitted under IT Act / law.
2. Your money would be in risk. Even he may refuse payment of money.
3. Show all documents to local lawyer and have guidance. You are investing huge amount.

Apparently the plot is to fleece hard earned monies of your retired father.
Don't fall into the trap laid.

Consult your own local counsel as already suggested.

Hope you understand and agree.

The seller is a fraud. No need to think twice. Just avoid this deal and move on.
I'm sure you will get better and genuine offers in the near future.
