Duration of Status quo in case of property

Respected Legal Advisers, My father had purchased a land from a builder in 1996. The total agreed amount for both land and the house to be constructed was 1.5L. But my father could not pay the full amount and ended up paying only 1.04L because of some loan not being granted. Builder did not finish the house as he did not receive the full amount. But the land was registered on my fathers name. I understood that the builder got a status quo order from the court. My question is what is the duration of the status quo order if there is any? As the status quo order is some 15-20 years old do we still cannot do any changes on the property? I appreciate your help in this regard. Thanks
