The rent receipt on your name will be valid document for your occupation in the pagdi system house as a tenant unless, the owner if intends to evict you from the property/premise you cannot have any defence.
You may have to go by the court order because there is no protection in law for purchasing the pagdi system house, the purchaser will still be treated as a tenant only, and in the absence of any valid rental agreement or rental receipt he may be treated as an illegal occupant and likely to be evicted by due process of law.
Therefore it is pertinent to take the previous tenant to the owner/landlord, talk to him and arrive at an amicable situation so that you obtain the tenancy rights directly instead of transferring from one to another, if the landlord discreet, you may get the tenancy status straightaway and will get the receipts issued on you name. There is no legal solution for this.
