If you take a loan it is not taxable. Have a loan agreement. If you want to take the amount as gift, the entire 25 lacs is taxable in your hands, no gift deed is required if the amount is transferred to your ac from your friend's ac. A confirmation letter may be required from your friend for such gifts.
