The income tax act does not make any differnce between rent received with or without rent agreement. Both receipts should be shown under the return of income. So as per Income tax act there is no consequences if you shown rent received without rent agreement.
As rent agreement is not requried under Income tax act, but it should be done to avoid to other problems related to tenancy.
