Respected Questioner,
As per you question you want to know about the time frame for claim for the title of the land.. I wish to inform you that we can't make the boundary for claiming for the title of the land because law provides safeguard for the owner of the land with respect to title and the same it gives the liberty to the owner to challenge the title at any time. We need to think about under what capacity the Tisco company has given that area to your father ..... Feel free to contact me..

As explained by you it looks like you are in possession of the land which does not belongs to you for over 27 year then you acquired the title of the property by way of adverse possessions which is of 12 years but you should bare in mind that while calming the property by adverse possession your possession should be known to the owner and also should be hostile to him
