In my view there is no income tax liability on the interest free loan you have borrowed from your father. Even if your father gifts you the amount it is not taxable in your hands

Is legal documentation needed for proof of loan for any future requirements? In what case, be it me or my father shall not be liable to pay any income tax?

There is no requirement of paperwork. I am assuming of course that your father has lent you the money from verifiable sources. To be on safe side you can execute a loan document laying out the terms and conditions, on which the money is lent, repayment schedule etc The situation as it is, would not bring on to you or your father, any tax liability

First of all the loan taken by you from your father is tax paid income as your father paid the tax on it and then only he was in a position to lend you this money. Only confirmation of loan with PAN of your father is sufficient document.
As regards tax-ability of 13 lacs which you have repaid to your father where from you got this money to re-pay your father? You must have earned 13L and then only you have re-paid. The income which you have earned is liable for tax and not the loan amount
