2nd buyer of Ancestral property

Mr. Popat sold that 62.50 sqm ancestral property (out of 125 sqm) to one of his son Mr. David in Feb 2015, myself and Mr. Popat's younger son signed as known person on that sale deed and I have purchased same property from Mr. David in Jul 2017. My name is also recorded to Land record office.
Mr. Popat is passed away in Dec 2016, now we heard that Mr. Popat made registered Will on the name of his 6 married daughter's for the same property, but I have not seen that Will.
Now, David's sister's want back this 62.50 sqm land and also threatening me for that.
Ownership details:
Rupaji-Owner till 1975-Gr-father of D
Popat-owner till 2015-Father of D
David-owner till Jul 2017 & sold me
Nilesh-present owner (myself)
Please guide me, I am safe or not.

'Buyer Beware' applies to property deals.

It shall be appropriate to get proper legal opinion from a very able local senior counsel of unshakable repute and integrity specializing in revenue/property/civil/DRT matters before signing or making payment.

This may cost some FEE but can defend long term interest and hard earned monies.

Which personal law applies in this case or all involved in family of seller/owner were/are Hindu?

Who is D? Is IT David?

Pls don’t use short forms and write full names!

What was land holding of 1st owner in Chain e.g; Rupaji and then each one in Chain till your seller; 62.5 sqm or more?

How did land change hands say by inheritance or any other instrument/registered deed e.g; WILL/Gift/sale/transfer etc etc?

What is date/month/year of death of each owner in chain?

Was mutation record updated for each transfer of ownership and did you get copy of mutations records with all link docs e.g; daet certificate/legal heir certificate/NOC by legal heirs /relinquishment-release-transfer deed etc ?

The said land is in which state?

Is it agricultural land or rural , urban etc ?

Is said sister married?

What is her date/month/year of marriage?

Generically speaking; If Popat’s ownership of land was  62.5sqm without any effects and he sold in his life time despite having signed WILL then sale by him may nullify the WILL…

If ownership of your seller was 62.5sqm without any effects then you may have NO reason to apprehend…sale deed becoming null and void…

Let the said registered WILL seed day of light…

Maintain your possession of property..
