if builder is reducing costs of premises grab it . if builder refuses tyo play ball you will be in for lengthy court battle.
if there was mistake in area mentioned or flat number you could have got deed of rectication executed . if builder is not interested accept his offer

True, you get benefited, so collect cash, and forget. Otherwise to rectify your paper, loss is more.
After all, it is builder's liability, to know and measure area, as per Architect's plan, and get approval of local body, who will assess your property tax on that basis.
you are not at loss either side. .

Answer: in my opinion is "no". change in Flat and floor number is not permissible in rectification deed.

Follow the advise from Mr.Sethi and Mr.Shroff.
You will be in loss if you take any other step.
The sale deed is executed for the premises which you have purchased. You cannot change the premises itself in the already registered sale deed.
