How to get registration of power of attorney in re-sale of property


23-Aug-2023 (In Property Law)
The property I am buying is re-sale property. This property was purchased by Mr. X from builder through special Power Of Attorney to his daughter in year 2011-12. This property was re-purchased by Mr. Y & was sold by Mr. X through General Power Of Attorney to his daughter in the year 2014-15. Now I am purchasing this property from Mr. Y. No home loan was involved in the previous transactions & was done through full cheque. Now I have already done with agreement of this property from Mr. Y & have paid downpayment & rest of the amount was to be paid through home loan. The legal team of SBI is not reachable for last 5 days & the answer is still awaited whether this loan can be done or no. I wanted to ask all you legal advisers, Am I in the trouble of purchasing a property which was sold to Mr. Y using non registered PoA? Since the PoA was done by first owner & I won't be able to track him down, how can I proceed with this situation?

If all the sequence of transactions viz., sale by Y to X and then again by X to Y are registered then you need not have to worry as it is the duty of the sub-registrar to check whether the POA submitted is a registered POA or not? In general in case where any POA is given for sale or purchase of immovable property, POA must be registered. Since, in your case if the series of documents entered are registered then you need not worry
