if your say is correct, it is wrong , not permissible under any law to charge such huge amount against interest.

it is necessary for me to know , how you make payment of Rs. 140000/- , if it is in cash , have you taken receipt for that ?? if paid by cheque , you may lodged complaint before the consumer court and even to the police.

police may refuse to take the complaint , there are remedies for compelling police to lodge the complaint. it is criminal offence and punishable under IPC as well as other laws.

it will be difficult for you to prove in the court that you have paid 1.4 lac and just 1 lac has been reflected in statement, if you have paid in cash. you may show to the court source from where you have received such payment. withdrawal from bank or from some private parties.
