I have transferred money to my friend over last 12 month amounting to 10Lacs via bank transfer. And now he returned in cash. Is it possible to pay this cash to repay my loan?

1. First of all you cannot accept any such cash (more than 2 lakhs) from anyone, as per section 269ST
2. Your friend cannot repay such loan by cash (more than 20K) as per section 269T
3. Both are liable for equal amount of penalties.
4. Yes, you can repay loan by cash.... provided lender is BANK...

Hi Sir,
Thanks for the reply.

Will it have any compliance issue? (Recently there is menu item in the income tax website: compliance --> Cash Transactions 2016.)

Cash Transaction 2016 compliance is all together different issue.

I think I found the answer
"The circular states that receipt of repayment of loan by the Non-Banking Finance Companies (NBFC) and Housing Finance Companies (HFC) will fall under the purview of section 269ST clause (b) if the repayment of 'one' loan instalment is equal to or above Rs. 2 lakh. "All the instalments paid for a loan shall not be aggregated for the purposes of determining applicability of the provisions of section 269ST."
