Hi

Do you mean payment of 10 lacs by cash or cheque?

At what value will the flat be registered?

OK. Then there would be no problem in taking a cheque in any of your accounts.

Show it as a loan taken or if the person is a relative, you can show it as a gift also which shall not be chargeable to tax.

For loan, you no need to show it in ITR since you're not filling balance sheet along with ITR.

You can take such gift from father in law and show it as an exempt income as gift, provided your father in law has genuine sources of income to show such payments.

I assume the 5% amount you mentioned above is stamp duty to be paid and property will be registered at 25.75 lacs.

Hi,

You can take loan from your friends/ relatives for buying house property.

You can take the money in any account. Make sure that you don't deal in cash.

Please feel free to call revert in case you need more clarity.

Thanks and regards

Hi,

Yes, gift from your father-in-law will be exempt, irrespective of the amount. On a safer side, you can enter into a gift deed. A gift deed is on a plain paper and will state the donor, donee, amount of gift and the reason for gift.

You will have to file your return of income at the specified due date i.e. 31 July of every month, for the financial year ended before it.
