Question

Partial loan repayment

I  have received one half of a personal loan amount including principal and interest.  Do I credit half of the interest and half of the principal as repaid for tax purposes?

The personal loan would not be added to your taxes, just the interest earned. Unless you mean you sold a house or something and carry the debt, that would be under an installment sale.
