You should lodge FIR or file complaint in court for cheating immediately, along with suit for recovery of money.

However, if the terms of the said agreement stipulates non-refundability of advance amount in case the sale do not materialise within a specified time frame,your cannot enforce specific performance against the vendor. Please check up the sale agreement for such clauses imposed.

Yes, if the time was of the essence of cntract and if forfeiture clause is there.I agree with Parthsarathiji.

author did not tell the time of registration of document before the registrar and also did not mention that the roperty sold to another beofre or after the agreement to sale. If the property was already sold to some one and lateron made the agreement to sale then it is ciminial offence and if the owner sale the property after making the agreement ot sale then there is Civil Remedy by way of specific performance as per terms and conditions of agreement ot sale stipulated therein.

dear sirs,

thanks for your kind replies. there is a stipulation in the agreement of sale that the balance of payment will be made within three months but there is no forfeiture clause. the agreement was made about two years ago but the vendor sold the land to someone else about one year ago. thanks again.
