If the builder gives a valid receipt, there should not be any problem. But it is always safe to pay by cheque.

Valid receipt is stamped receipt. Stamp as required by the stamp Act with proper details about the payee and signed by authorized person.

If it is for initial booking, it is always safe to give through cheque/Demand Draft instead of cash. If cash only to be paid, he should mention the purpose in his receipt.

Why the builder is asking for cash payment?will he get some tax advantage if not given through cheque/draft/account transfer?He was saying he takes 10% in cash from every person.

No need of giving cash,pay only by cheque /draft/account transfer.he may not keep the cash receipt in account books.

The intention of the builder seems to be not accounting the money to evade tax.
