When you keep money in saving account

Bank paid you interest on that money which you kept in their bank in saving account

It is calculated in daily basis and credited to you at the end or middle of the each quarter or half of the year

Income earned from the interest from saving account is known as or treated as income from other sources

And it is deducted upto 10000 under 80TTA and the excess is taxable

Hence it is a savings account and loan amount is credited your bank is giving you interest as per the amount you have in your savings account . Interest credit will be treated as income from other sources

Interest debited is treated as interest payments towards loans

I think this type of loan have moratorium period of 10 years.

Use borrowing costs standard for both IndAS and AS 16 which ever standard your following becuz you can capitalise the costs as long as the project is ongoing and expense when there is a halt in the project. Also check if the scope is allowing your project costs to be capitalised.
