Any correction in the sale deed like measurement of the site requires amendment to the original sale deed. It had to be done by both the owners and the purchasers. If one of the owners is asking for money, you need to sit with him and compromise for least amount. Or otherwise, ignore the correction and continue to occupy the premises.

If another previous owner is not responding properly and demanding for the money don't ask him, he is now no way concerned to the land. Just the owner who has agreed is more than sufficient.
If you filed a suit, period of suit cannot be said because it depends on the pending of the cases in the court

The timeline would depend on the Court before which you file this suit. Better to file a case and pursue it with a lawyer rather than settle with the owner directly as there is no guarantee that they will cooperate.
