we have purchased a property three years back by a registry in the front of sub-registrar by paying stamp duty ,now the relatives of the previous owner of the property that property is not mine and they are the owner of the property..Then i applied for the injuction against the relatives of previous owner ,as previos owner is died, and the property is of very old construction and nobody will able to live in that house.At the time of injuction case i applied for the house tax mutation on my name and they did the house tax mutation on my name.Now the relatives of the previous owner complaint in the mcd office that a case is pending on the property and how do you made the house tax mutation on the name of me and the mcd authorities send us the letter and asked for the status of the case and if we didn't give answer in three days they cancel my house tax mutation (AS FIRST DATE OF INJUCTION CASE IS 2-5-2007 AND THE MUTATION DATE IS 4-5-2007)So sir you tell me the appropriate answer that i will give to mcd officers.Please reply my query

Municipal tax and mutation etc does not creat any ownership rights over the property. You are advised to reply the notice in support of your documents, let the municipal authorities take their own discretion.If they cancel their proceedings in your favor, need not worry. Fight the civil case and wait for the finding of the court.
