I think than it is assumed that both individual have equal share in property i.e 50:50
and capital gain should be divided equally.
Taxation will depend from who`s funds property is purchased.
if they have jointly contributed then it will be taxable in their investment ratios.

If property is purchased in joint name then capital gains will be taxable 50% each in both hands (in the absence of specific mention of ownership ratio). But it will also depend upon who is shown as seller in the sale deed.
