Ajay, I do not think any bank will give you 1 lakh just for the sake of it. If it is so, you are lucky. If you permit, please let me know the name of the BANK. My client has got atleast 100 odd properties in INDIA. He will be very happy. ( The loan given by bank of capital construction is capital receipt. It is not taxable) If the bank is giving 1 lakh as ADVANCE RENT, then it will be taxable in the year of receipt.
