If Mr. X has not given power to ABC to transfer the property in favour of anyone including ABC itself, then the transfer becomes illegal. But if Mr. X has given power to ABC to transfer the property to anyone including in favour of ABC, then the transfer does not become illegal per se. The deed can be cancelled only on ground like fraud, or like circumstances by filing a suit for that purpose. If ABC has committed any offence like cheating, forgery, crminal breach of trust while transfering the property, then it can be prosecuted for those offences.

I would like to add that It has passed very long time since 1992 you have to explain the delay and civil suit is not possible after certain period of limitation.
