The rule is for the minimum stamp duty you have to pay you have liberty to pay more, once you paid more and the document is registered no question of refund arises

You cannot get any refund since the sale consideration is mentioned in the sale deed. You have paid the stamp duty in accordance with the value contained in the deed.
