      If you got an email from your bank, it should have an escalation matrix. Once you show it is from a legitimate source, it should be fine.

        If you file a suit it would have to be on the basis that it belonged to your father and you are one of his heirs. In that case, you would have 1/6 share ( if your father’s mother is alive, then 1/7). Are they offering you less money than that ?

          The typical solution in such cases is to collaborate with a well-connected builder who will take care of the legal hassles.

            It depends on what you have in writing from them. What they have said verbally won’t hold unless you have a recording.

            Is there any written warranty or commitment from the dealer/seller ?

              Sorry to hear about your situation, but there is a reason the market for second hand cars is called a market for lemons. Caveat emptor !

              The situation you described is far too common, unfortunately. These cars are sold on a as is where is basis. Unless there is a contract that specifically holds the dealer responsible for these problems, there is not too much you can do.

                Employees can be laid off in India by providing requisite notice and/or severance. It happens all the time. An employee can’t be fired at will without providing a valid cause. However, most MNCs and even Indian companies usually choose to avoid firing for cause and risk litigation and use layoffs instead. If the company determines there is only enough work for one of you, there is no restriction on laying off the other person by providing adequate notice/compensation.

                  The text of the law is gender neutral, but judges also come from society, so the practice is not. An unemployed able bodied man will be judged very differently than a woman in a similar situation. Since women also usually have primary responsibility for childcare and also because of the reality of societal norms, where the man is supposed to be the provider and women are expected to support it, it is not entirely unfair also. In certain cases, the husband might have a genuine case, but the bar to prove it is high.

                    Please discuss specific details with a lawyer, but generally courts in India are reluctant to award alimony to husbands even when they earn less, unless there are exceptional circumstances like him sacrificing his career for his wife’s and not being able to physically work due to some disability.

                      Why are you not parking in your own allotted parking space ? From what you describe , all the other owners seem to have one. If you don’t have one , you can’t really claim a right and will have to adjust based on what others allow. The other alternative is to act like a bahubali and fight with your neighbours.

                        Unfortunately, not very high. I think you have been deceived by the seller/patwari. Look up the actual circle rate for your land here :

                        https://igrsup.gov.in/igrsup/getUploadedRateList

                        I randomly looked up Amethi. In most areas the circle rate for agricultural land is 30-50 lakhs per hectare. Unless your land is in a really expensive locality, you have overpaid quite a lot at over 3 crores/ hectare.

                          What is the source for the information that the circle rate for agricultural land in your locality is 300/sq ft ? The government publishes the circle rates for different land use categories in every locality of every district and the information should be available online. Have you checked online on the government website that the circle rate for the agricultural land owned by you is 3.23 crores / hectare ( that would be the unit specified in the official document , not per sqft) ? The rate for non -agricultural land would be much higher ( and specified in terms of sq metres). The circle rate is decided at the state government level by ministers and senior IAS officers, not by the patwari. The price on which registry stamp duty is charged is the higher of actual transaction price and the one based on the circle rate. So, what you think is the circle rate in your document might be the higher of circle rate and sale price. Check the government table of circle rates for the actual circle rate applicable.

                            Agricultural land circle rate is quoted in Rs/hectares in official documents.

                            300/sq ft is over 3 crores/hectare which sounds too high for agricultural land, which tends to have much lower circle rate. Which district is the land in ? Are you sure you are not looking at circle rate for non- agricultural land ( which is quoted in Rs/sq metre) ? Is it possible that the person who sold you the land misled you about the circle rate for agricultural land ?

                            I find it difficult to believe that the govt will try to buy land at less than the circle rate . What are other farmers in the area saying about it ? Do you have any crops planted on the land ? The government has to pay you a reasonable multiple of the income you are deriving from the land.

                              What is the designated land use – residential, agricultural or commercial ? Is it registered with some urban authority ? Under what law and for what purpose is the government trying to acquire it ?
