I was just thinking about the essence of CGT.

Govt shares 10% of profit, well, that 's ok.

BUT IF One sells a property on LOSS, will govt share 10% of loss as well?? ....lolz

Actually in many tax systems one can carry forward what is known as a capital loss to future years and offset it against capital gains (and to some extent, ordinary income) for tax purposes. Which is kind of similar to what you are proposing. It may make sense for govt to introduce that here.

If I buy two properties X at 1 crore and Y at 1 crore.

Now in a year time, I sell X at 1.1 crore and Y at 0.9 crore, the net Capital gain for me is 0. So I should not be paying any tax in such a case...But here?

@Ekrar, exactly the same question came to my mind :) the government should share loss too!
But I think Anjum has a point we can adjust this loss with other property with gains.
I think we should keep track of all withholding tax from now on means withholding tax paid on Cell phone bill (mobile companies if requested can give you the letter indicating how much withholding is deduced for a year), withholding deducted from bank transactions!
Most importantly the withholding deducted on property purchase that is a lot of money the same money can be used to adjust the CGT.
