According to the information provided by you, you can file a suit for partition and get the land ex-parte. The partition deed is required to be registered at the office of the sub-registrar of the place where the property is situated as in case of any other registration. The stamp duty payable in such a case is Rs 1,000 for each share of the property. Further, the registration fee will be Rs 500.

A. Dear Client
When someone wants to claim ownership of land that's not theirs, it is called Adverse Possession. To claim Adverse Possession you would need to make an application to the Land Registry. The Land Registry have a strict set of criteria you must meet before you can claim land you do not own. Without registration, a buyer has no legal right over the property.
