Taxability of interest under a flat buy-back arrangement turns on the actual repayment sequence and the income credited in the assessee's hands. Where documents, including the payer's email and remand material, showed that principal was to be repaid first and premium or interest only thereafter, the Assessing Officer could not treat the outstanding balance as interest already received or accrued without evidence that the full premium component had been paid.
