It is not mentioned existence of agreement for construction of flat is entered into or not? In case the same was entered (whether / registered unregistered), is there is any clause in the agreement for payment of liquidated damages in case of delay in delivery of possession of the property or non-performance of the agreement.
If this payment is according to such clause in the agreement, it is not in the nature of revenue receipt but in the nature of capital receipt.
Please refer CIT V. Saurashtra Cement Ltd. (2010).
However, in your case the contract is not performed at all.
Nature of receipt may be analyzed correctly on scrutiny of the agreement only.

The excess amount received of Rs. 6 lacs is income from other sources in the nature of interest.
