We had purchased a land in 1983 and registered it in my Mother's name. Years later we found that the original document has been lost and we are unable to trace it.
Now after 30 years, we had to legalize the document.
We got the EC for 30 years and the property is in my Mother's name with no issues.
So now my mother is planning to write a "settlement deed" in our name. Hence the lost "Sale deed" will become the "mother document"
Can we threat this "Settlement deed as the original document for the property".
Please advice?
