In case of gift no consideration was received so capital gain not raised.

I'll explain with the help of an example.
Suppose Mr. A purchased a property on 1.4.1990 for Rs. 5 lakhs.
On 1.4.2000, he gifted the property to his son, Mr. B.
This transaction is exempt from capital gain and there will no tax liability on Mr.A.
On 1.10.2011, Mr. B sold the property.
This transaction is taxable in the hands of Mr. B.
While computing capital gain, cost of acquisition shall be that of the previous owner, i.e. Mr A.
So the cost of acquisition for Mr. B shall be Rs. 5 lakhs,
Hope it is now clear.
