Encumbrance Certificate shows the mortgages and other deeds registered to prior dates. Unfortunately the EC does not reveal about the litigations pending if any. TO safeguard this issue, you can incorporate a clause in the sale deed in case of litigations if any will make this sale deed void and it will be made good by the seller.

It is true the EC will not show any Litigation - only shows the Register Transactions on the Property mentioned in EC

Regarding any disputes/litigation on the property ! as mentioned above any litigation will not reflect in the EC .

For Verification of any litigation, you have to approach local advocate and get it verified in the local courts suit registers to know whether there is any Litigation .

Before purchasing, u go thru., the original sale deed and take information that whether the property is ancestral and self earned of the person who is selling the flat.
Then u take the entire property card, and more than 13 years encumbrance certificate, which clearly shows that is there any encumnbrances like bank loan for which the property is mortgaganzed. In the EC u will get all the deatial of mortgazes. Tax Paid to local authroties, and buidling compeletion certificate, etc., For furather details u contact the local lawyer.
