Law of Lis pendence is applicable i such matters which means the subsequent parties are bound by the fate of their predecessor in interest and ultimately last buyer shall be sufferer. Possession shall have to be delivered by him against order passed in execution petition.

if you are in maharashtra and have registered the pendency of suit under section 18 of registration act the property after the notice is so registered cannot be transferred or otherwise dealt with by any party to the suit or proceeding so as to affect the rights of any other party thereto under any decree or order which may be made therein, except under the authority of the court and on such terms as it may impose.
2) Every notice of pendency of a suit or proceeding referred to in sub-section (1) shall contain the following particulars, namely:-

In Jayaram Mudaliar v. Ayyaswami (AIR 1973 SC 569) this court held that the purpose of Section 52 of the Act is not to defeat any just and equitable claim, but only to subject them to the authority of the court which is dealing with the property to which claims are put forward. This court in Hardev Singh v. Gurmail Singh (2007) 2 SCC 404 held that Section 52 of the Act does not declare a pendente lite transfer by a party to the suit as void or illegal, but only makes the pendente lite purchaser bound by the decision in the pending litigation


in your case if D sells the property and ulimately you win the case the purchaser will have to deliver the property to A
