@samhita,

You have to do the following,

1. File a police complaint first about loss of passport.
2. Go to Indian Embassy in the UK and apply for new passport.
3. Once you get the new passport, apply for a fresh dependent visa.

AFAIK, you can't another visa vignette stamped for the one you lost.

So, what if someone looses Passport with Tier-1(G) visa stamped on it now?

Maybe samhita could also follow a similar approach ?

1. Apply for a new passport, as explained above by rkumar.
2. Contact UKBA to enquire the procedure for applying for a "replacement visa". Make sure that they understand that you have lost your passport with a valid visa endorsed and you need to apply for a replacement visa ... and not a new visa.
3. Also make sure that you are given clear advice about documentary evidence(s) needed, application form to use and associated fees.
