    Around 3 years back, I gave to my friend around Rs. 8.5 lakhs through cash/cheque/through credit card purchase, Now my friend wishes to raise bank loan and pay me back the money through his bank cheque. My point is, if I deposit the cheque worth Rs. 8.5 lakhs to my bank SB account, the transaction will be notified to IT dept. When IT dept question in which way I got this money, how can I convince IT dept that I received the same money that I gave to my friend as loan. Additionally which way I can prepare paper from my friend to establish that the cheque I deposit is not attracted under IT Act. Please help me.
