Your client had paid amount on the behalf of his relative (I assume he is a relative under IT Act) as advance for property purchase by bank entry.

It is possible that the relative has shown the entry in his own books as loan from your client. When he repaid it by cash, it is possible that he did not show rep[ayment entry in his books and the loan continues in his books bec repayment of unsecured loan by cash is not allowed u/s 269T.

Now if you client deposits the cash in his bank, he will have to show as refund of advance.

Your client should talk about this matter with his relative because there should not be any mismatch in their books of a/cs. If possible get a letter from the relative explaining the transaction.
