respected sir,
can a money suit be changed into title suit ?(because to avoid multiplicity of suit and unnecessary delay to the parties)

No . The basic principle of amendment of plaint is the amendment sought to be made shall not change the nature of the suit. Rather you can withdraw the suit with leave to sue afresh.

If you put your facts properly it is possible to do it.
The best thing is ask for documents / information from other side and based on chaged situation as disclosed ask for amendment.
THE MOST IMP THING IS THERE IS NO LIMITATION THAT HOW MANY TIMES YOU CAN APPLY FOR AMENDMENT OF PLEADINGS.
So try you will suceed. Just rephrase your pleadings.
