SIR,
MY FRIEND HAD GIVEN A REGISTERED POWER OF ATTORNEY TO MR.A.SOME DAY BACK MY FRIEND HAS PUBLISHED AN A NOTICE IN NEWS PAPER ABOUT CANCELLATION OF THE SAME POA.AFTER THE PUBLISHMENT OF NOTICE,MR.A HAS SOLD MY FRIEND'S LAND UNKNOWING THAT HE HAS PUBLISHED A NOTICE IN NEWS PAPER.
WHAT WILL BE CONSEQUENCES OF MUTATION.MY FRIEND HAS NOT REGISTERED THE CANCELLATION OF POA.
PLEASE ADVICE.

The cancellation of POA ought to have been registered and the POA holder ought to have been informed through a Registered Letter.
This having been not done, mere publication of a notice in the newspaper will not affect the authority of the POA holder to act on the basis of the POA in his hand.

Agreed with Anirudh. Revocation of POA is required by way of cancellation.

The POA holder can do nothing if the intimation of its recovation has been properly given to him.
