Hi,
I have bought a Plot from a close relative in 2012 and paid him two cheque and rest in cash. We got the registry in 2012 and mentioned the details of payment as two cheque and rest cash in registrar office. Later the person returned the cheque and asked me to pay in cash which I did but did not take an affidevit or reciept (considering the close relation) of the above change. My relative got a conflict with me in 2014 and now we are in very bad terms and he threatened to get the registry cancelled. Once I discovered that he is trying to cheat me, I got the mutation of the property done as per process. He is now trying to file a case against me for saying that cheque never got realised and I did not have reciept of cash payment nor an affidevit of change in mode of payment for above said property. I need to know following:
1. Can he file such a case against me?
2. Will registrar get registry cancel even i had got the mutation done on my name?
3. As registry was done in 2012 and mutation in early 2016. Is there any timelimit for him to file any such case?
3. what action should i take to stop his cheating?
Thanks
Suraj
