20 February 2011 Where an Individual or HUF receives any property other than immovable property from a non-relative and its value exceeds Rs 50000/- it is taxable in the hands of receiver.

However, Motor Cars have not been included in the definition of property in the explanation to clause (c) of Section 56(2)(vii). Hence if you gift a car to your friend it is tax free.
