Mr X wanted to purchase 5 Acre of Agricultural land from E, the flow of title are as follows
In the year 1946 itself it was ancestral property of A to the extent of 30 Acre, after his demise (1956) property divided between his 3 male children BCD to the extent of 10 Acre equally (No partition deed only mutation entry & schedule also not specified) no shares to female members, In the year 1965 B expired and again mutation were changed equally to the extent of 5 Acres each among his 2 male children E & F (Again no boundary specification, no deed, No Registration-only mutation entry)
Now E willing to sell his portion to X and his wife & children will jointly execute the sale deed
My question is ,(1) since from inception property divided among family members but no document to show the exact boundaries of each members share, family members themselves decide their boundary and cultivating accordingly, all the transactions were reflected in Mutation entries.
Is this flow of title valid in the eye of law? Because In Agricultural land/Ancestral property almost each & every case flow of title is almost similar to this case and X has no other option
