Land compensation

I am hving 4 acre of land, out of which I sold 10 guntas. Sales deed is done in 2001, but podi is not yet done. Now 1115 sq m of my land is acquired for road widening work. Out of this around 100 sq m come in sold land (10 gunta). Since podi is not done compensation amount of this 100 sq m also came to my name. But now the land buyer gave objection letter to the collector. Therefore my compenstion amount is withheld. Now what is the procedure to get my compensation amount? I agreed to give compensation amount of 100 sq m to the buyer. But the buyer is demanding more amount. What should I do now?

By mistake, the sold land of 10 guntas came in your name, but this belongs to the buyer of the land of 10 guntas.  So, his claim is correct, and you shall not claim it to avoid legal issues.

Even though the podi is not done since you have already sold the said portion of land to a buyer, it would be illegal on your part to accept the compensation for the property already sold to a third party.

If the buyer is not accepting the money you received for that portion of land, you may return the amount to the district collector/competent authority stating that you are not the owner of that property.

The authorities may take legal action on you for playing fraud or cheating the government

I got compensation at the rate of 395 /- per sq. m. as my land is wet land. Buyer for his own different land got 800/- per sq  m  as it is dry land. I am ready to give 395/- per sq m for the sold land. But buyer demanding 800/- per sq.m. But the problem is in the sales deed of sold 10 gunta it is written as dry land only. What should I do now?

You can ask him to move court of law which you can challenge in the trial proceedings on the basis of documentary evidences and merits in your side.

Can it be resolved in AC court sir?

The Collector is competent to deide such claims. You apprise the authorities of the factual position. And await the authority's decision.

Moreover, it is primaily the responsibility of the buyer to get the mutation carried out.
