Dear Vinod,

1. There must be a minimum bidding amount (also called "reserve price") announced by the bank on behalf of the owner in the bid auction. The bank ought to have got this cleared with the owner prior to giving the advertisement. If it did not, it is the liability of the bank.

2. You certainly have a valid case against the bank.

3. You should plead for the land title documents to be transferred in your name by showing your willingness to pay up the auctioned amount to the owner.

Regards,
