Under Indian law, a separate building plan is usually required for any new construction, regardless of whether it’s on the same property as an existing structure. Your local municipal corporation will have specific regulations regarding building plans and permits, so you should contact them for clarification.

My family is Hindu and we have 10 acres of land. My father has two sons – my brother and me. We still live together as a joint family.

I’m worried about what legal action can be taken against my brother. Which sections of the law apply in this situation, and what punishments could he face?

I recently planned to sell my ancestral land. I met with a potential buyer at a property agent’s office, and we agreed on a price of 35 lakhs. He gave me a cheque of Rs. 55,000 as a token amount. A week later, my parents advised me against selling and suggested I build a house on the land instead. I contacted the buyer and explained that I couldn’t sell the property anymore. Now he’s demanding double the token amount and threatening legal action, claiming I cheated him. We never signed any formal agreement for the sale.
