It is possible if the said property is sold by your father in the capacity of being your guardian without obtaining a court permission and the sale consideration not used for your benefit. Also ensure genuine buyer is not penalised

Sir you can claim your minor property from your father within 12 years period after attaining majority.Now your age is 38 years.The limitation period is 12 years plus 18 years so 30 years.Therefore your claim is a time barred one.

You have not stated when it was sold and further if your father can convince the buyer that the property was sold for taking care of the needs of the minor that transaction is valid and you can not do anything in this matter.
