Income tax consequences of cancelled property booking

Hello,

One of my friend had made a down payment for a property in a real estate project which was declared open for booking but construction was originally planned to start after 6 months. The construction was not started for about a year and then due to some indifferences, he has cancelled the booking of property. He has got his original amount back after 1 and 1/2 year. Builder hadn't given any interest on the amount which they had used for 1 and 1/2 year. What would be the consequences from Income Tax perspective for him?

no consequences, just keep the documents of cancellation with you

No income, no loss.
Dear sir, not to worry in this case, as Mr. Gupta said please maintain all your documents with you. Regards
