You have the right to appeal the court’s decision within the stipulated timeframe. You can also explore options like filing a review petition or a writ petition, depending on the specific grounds for challenge. Additionally, you should consult with a legal professional specializing in property law to assess your options and best course of action.

I’ve booked a flat in a new building, it’s ready to move in. The flat was part of the land owner’s share, and there are registered documents showing exactly which flat belongs to which owner.
