If the mortgagor did not return the money after the period as agreed or written, then the mortgagor dont want to sell the property, he may be got the mortgage transferred to other person and shall repay your loan. otherwise he shall execute a sale deed in your favour for a reasonable consideration excluding the loan amount and interest thereon. If he fails to do so, you have file a case against the mortgagor for recovery of loan amount. But you have no right to sell the mortgaged property. so seriously settle this issue in an amicable way or contact an experienced Advocate if any case filed by the son of the mortgagor.

As rightly advised already you had no right to sell the property even after the period of mortgage (in a mortgage by conditional sale) because a mortgage is always a mortgage and a mortgage by conditional sale is quite different from a real conditional sale. The sale in this type of mortgage is an ostensible one but not real one.

Your right was limited to file a suit for foreclosure and get a decree debarring the mortgagor of his right to redeem the property.

Mr. Vivek,

Your problem does not give a look of some real problem, when you have brought the son in to picture without mention of the mortgagor, whether still alive or dead. Further, when you know about the provisions of section 58c, you should also have checked the provisions of other related sections. All this gives clear impression, as if you intend to get ready made answer to your hypothetical problem, without seeing all the sections pertaining to mortgage of a property and the rights and liabilities of a mortgagee..

However, if it is your real problem, as per the given description, the mortgage deed entered in to by you was not only a deed for mortgage of the property of the owner, but also an agreement to transfer the property on failure to get the mortgage released in time. By virtue of that you were entitled to claim the possession of the property and registered in your name, as a deemed owner of the property. But, you missed several important legal formalities, as contained in sections 53 to 104, which were necessary to be followed before you could sell the property to some other person.

Of course, complications are there in your sales transaction due to having not observed provisions of various sections of law on mortgaged property.

The simple answer to your latest revelation is that everything depends upon objection by any of the concerned party/ legal heirs. Moreover, payment of property tax is not a guarantee to the the legal title and ownership of a property. Any legal deficiency can reverse the transaction due to invalidity or illegality of the transfer of property.

But, when you have already sold the property, your anxiety is not understood. Llet the buyer of property be concerned more than you.

However, if you have some worry, you you may wait for any action by the sons of the mortgagor, or else, as any casual query and information in tit bits may not be helping appropriately, both you and the buyer should seek personal advice from some local expert by getting all the case related documents examined thoroughly..
