Is gilts liable to capital gain tax?
I think you meant to ask whether "gifts" are liable to capital gains tax. If it is a true gift within the meaning of the tax law (and not some sort of disguised payment or barter), there is no capital gain tax at the time the gift is given. There may, however, be a gift tax (which is a different kind of tax) on the donor. If the recipient of the gift later disposes of the gift, that transaction may generate taxable capital gains for the recipient.

What tax form do you use to document gifts received?
Form 709 is U.S. Gift (and Generation-Skipping Transfer) Tax Return. It isn't filed by the recipient of gifts because recipients don't generally pay gift tax. If a gift is subject to tax, it generally is taxable to the donor. The annual gift tax exclusion level is $12,000 per recipient for 2008 ($13,000 per recipient for 2009). File Form 709 if you give any gift that exceeds the exclusion level. For more information, go to www.irs.gov./formspubs for Publication 950: Introduction to Estate and Gift Taxes.
