Self rectification

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 26 January 2024 This query is : Resolved
I bought a land 15 years back.Two years back I planned to sale the land, document copy gave to buyer. He observed that in the plot plan drawing, plot measurements in the East & West sides are reversed by mistake.Originally East side 46 feet & West side 72 feet.But in the plan drawing they mentioned East side 72 feet & West side 46 feet. So I tried to approach Previous owners for rectification. With in this 15 yrs period land value increased 20 times.So they are not exist for rectification. After discussion with document writer he advised to take self rectification deed.I have done the same thing.Here previous plan drawing not changed,but they issued self rectification deed.In that document original measurements mentioned. Registrar signed& stamped on that document.After few days I registered the property on my wife's name as a gift deed & in the plan drawing they clearly mentioned original measurements.
Will i get rectified?

Quick Summary

A landowner discovered a reversed measurement on their land's plot plan after 15 years, prompting an attempt at rectification. As the original sellers were unavailable and land values had significantly increased, a 'self-rectification deed' was executed. While this deed was registered and stamped by the registrar, legal advice suggests it may be invalid and could cause future issues. The validity of such deeds can vary by state, and consulting a local advocate is recommended to revoke the deed and pursue a court order for proper rectification.

It is invalid in the eyes of law to go for execution of self rectification deed.
It is not known that how the registrar had signed it.
It will create problem now or at later stage , hence you may consult an advocate in the local and take steps to revoke the self rectification deed and then approach court with a suit for specific relief after which you can get the rectification through court order.

Self-rectification deed is valid in Andhra Pradesh as per Government instructions. It is instructed that if the whereabouts of the previous sellers or their legal heirs it shall be mentioned clearly in the rectification deed. Some executive instructions vary from one state to another state, so consult in your state.
