in IPC u can lodge an FIR aginst the cheaters under section 420, 467, 468 IPC.

no provisions in Land Law. coz u nt made it clear that its agriculural land or a residetial. urban property.

if the plot nt registered in ur favour then u can file a suit of specific performance in Specific Relief Act, 1963 against the seller.

Your question is murky. The second buyer has taken sufficient care to enquire about the ownership of the property. But, it is not revealed how the first buyer had not got his name entered in the mutation register as soon as he purchased the plot. The second buyer should have come to know about the first sale if he had obtained encumbrance certificate from the Sub-Registrar's office. He should have known about mutation in the revenue records of the land when and why it took place. There could have been responses to the advertisement released by him.

However, the ultimate bottom line is that the seller has cheated the second buyer. He can proceed against him under the provisions of Section 420, 467 and 468 of the IPC.
