If the property was purchased with father's money, the ownership may be traced back to him; even though you may be "ostensible owner", your father will be the "real owner".
The mutation is a just a prima facie rebuttable evidence and not a "conclusive proof" of ownership. The mutation may be a good proof untill questioned by the real owners.
