Hi Srinivas,

Good luck. Not many people can afford it . any how you can  see http://www.disabilityindia.org/importingcars.cfm

Rules For Importing Cars By The Disabled
PHYSICALLY HANDICAPPED PERSONS
Import of cars specially designed for the physically handicapped may be permitted on the basis of certificate in the Performa as prescribed in annexure-I appended to this Public Notice, from the State Civil Surgeon or Head of the concerned wing in the Government Hospital, certifying that the importer has any of the following disabilities and the percentage of impairment is not less than 50% of the total body as per Mebride Scale:

Unilateral/Bilateral amputees of the lower limbs excluding below knee unilateral.
Unilateral below elbow or above elbow ambuacee.
Traumatic/permanent paralysis which cannot be surgically or medically treated.
Permanent paralysis of one upper limbs or lower limbs due to any reason or hemipares.
Grossly deformed limbs due to trauma arthritis or congenital but having atleast one upper limbs normal.

If the car is a gift, confirmatory letter from donor, in original, which should also indicate the donor's relationship with the donee.

Satisfactory evidence clearly justifying the need and essentiality for import of a self driven car by the applicant.

Import of only one car upto 1600 CC engine capacity will be allowed.

Car shall not be allowed to be sold or otherwise disposed off or possession parted with, or pledged, mortgaged or hypothecated, at any time. However, in special circumstances, and for valid reasons, and subject to such conditions as may be laid down, the Director General of Foreign Trade, New Delhi, may on request, relax this condition.

The importer shall produce his driving licence within 6 months from the date of import, to the licensing authority with whom 'No Sale Bond' is executed.

The Customs duty may be paid in Indian Rupees
