Sir
I have made an land purchase agreement by phone with a person living in abroad for his property in India.
To confirm this agreement he had send me mail of scanned file (of hand written agreement by his hand ).
He directed to give me advance to his relative by sms from his mobile.
He gave me State Bank Of India account number to deposit advance. I have proof for the same.
I did the same. I did not received original agreement. now the person is trying to sell to somebody.
Whether my stand will win in the court?
please guide me.

The electronic scanned copy of the agreement is a valid piece of evdence. Immedately file a suit for declation and injunction in respect of the suit property or you can file a suit for sepcific performance of contract as well.
