Forget about the receipts, as long as Arjun is in possession, he is having the tenancy rights.

Dear Sir
Then what is the importance of receipt if karan want to do any fraud with arjun he can do that ?

Where was Arjun sleeping during these 11 years? So gya so kho gya....

It shall be very difficult for Arjun to prove his possession over property being co-tenant at such belated stage though some of the documents depict his name. Arjun should issue and notice to landlord to issue receipt of rent in the name of both brothers as usual in past. I think he can do so failing which file a civil suit seeking similar relief from him.

Dear Sir
can you tell me what is the procedure for tenancy to ownership.
Advocate. Arunagiri (Expert) 23 April 2011
If you pay the rent you are the tenant.

If you buy the same property you become the owner.

SIR,
KINDLY NOTE THAT
1.THE SAID LAND IS IN POSSESSION OF TENENTS SINCE 1976 AND LANDLORD IS ISSUING RENT RECEIPTS IN BOTH NAMES BUT SUBSEQUENTLY IN THE NAME OF ONE TENENT.
2.THE LANDLORD AND ONE OF THE TENENTS WHOSE NAME IS REFLECTED ON RENT RECEIPT MAY ENTER IN TO ANY COMPROMISE OR FINANCIAL AGREEMENT AND TRANSFER/SELL THE SAID PROPERTY WHICH MAY CAUSE UNNECESSARY HARASSMENT AND LITIGATIONS FACED BY TENENT WHOSE NAME IS NOT APPEARING ON SAID RENT RECEIPT.
3.IT IS ADVISIBLE THAT LANDLORD AND TENENT TO AGREE FOR SETTLEMENT TERMS FOR TRANSFERING OWNERSHIPS,OTHERWISE IT IS A LONG LEGAL BATTLE PLEASE NOTE.GOOD LUCK.
