The POA given to person B was not acted upon by him, however the POA given to C, even though witout cancelling the earlier POA deed, was acted upon by the power agent  and he sold the property on the basis of the power deed given to him.This sale was not challenged either by the principal or the previous power agent.

Subsequent to the death of the principal the POA deeds given to both stands cancelled 

The property was sold on the basis of the POA deed, hence the legal heirs of the principal cannot  claim any rights over the property already sold during the lifetime of the principal
