you have no option but to file a suit for recovery of Rs. 1 Lac in accordance with the agreement written down the stamp paper.
you can file a suit for recovery of amount
If you are in Maharashtra i doubt how much the civil court may accept unregistered agreement as proof.
even if the document is not admissible, the tenancy may be considered as monthly; you may consider filing a civil suit for recovery.
