Dear Shashank,
If this Gift is in the form of money then entire 10k is taxable.
If this is an article/item worth Rs. 10,000 - then there is no certaininty as such since there is no clarification from the department side - still better option is to tax entire Rs. 10,000 (& not only in excess of Rs. 5,000)
