file your return paying relevant CG tax on difference of amount and release yourself from any future action by taxman, unless you have any other solution of utilization of the difference in moneys.
there is case law by HC of Bombay stamp duty cannot be the criterion for moneys you paid to buy a property with a relevant sale deed/agreement. Taxman may not accept unless you attach a copy of the judgement.
