Register office has cancelled the deed without any prior notice to me.Now I am in problem and proceeding to move to court.
I have got the electricity connection on my name.but I have not transferred the property tax, water tax and sewerage tax.

Your father had settled only 50 % of the UDS. You have accepted the settlement and transfered EB connection in your name and paying EB charges. You have spent huge sum of hard earned money to develope the property. You are in possession and enjoyment of property by residing there with your family. There may be delay or no immediate necessity arose to transfer the property tax, water. Considering the relationship and the father remaining owner of 50% UDS, mutation of property tax, water tax in your name will not affect your title. 

You are the owner of the settled property. Your father is aware of all these and stood over the developments. Therefore your father has no right to revoke the settlement deed. In revocation, register office is not bound to give any notice to you. 

You have to file a civil suit challenging the revocation deed.

I have already Filed a civil suit challenging the cancellation of the deed in chennai high court and got the injunction order not to do any other transactions in theproperty.The order is being served to my father and the SRO,saidapet.

Today my father called over phone after receiving the order copy, he wanted to setlle to me and my brother with compromise. kidly suggest how to proceed from now with the help of court or by the registerer office.

Mere Suit for Cancellation of sale deed ca not be filed before High Court. I am correct, the suit is pending before City Civil Court at chennai, (Situated within High Court campus). 

So far as, settlement is concerned, it is family affair, You are the best person to decide it.
