The legal heirs of the deceased person are the title holders of the property since his death, and you have no right over the property just because you have transferred some money to the deceased person which could be considered as your gift or donation.

You can claim the amount transferred through NEFT to your friend from his legal heirs,if it is in limitation period.

You have no claim, right or interest in the property purchased in the name of deceased.
Do you have evidence to prove the payment of any amount (within 3 years) to your friend, if so, claim it.

If your so called investment amount is within the limitation you can issue a legal notice to the legal heirs of the deceased and then initiate a money recovery suit and seek for an order of attachment before judgment of the said property as security till disposal of the filed against the legal heirs of the deceased borrower
