 You can  issue two receipts with two different dates.  If any one of you are agriculturists this rule may not apply.  Further the amount of ceiling is over Rs.25,000/-.  There is no need for going into supplementary agreement if such cash payments are mentioned with such cheque no for additional payments made.

However there are complications involved in such sale due to capital appreciation, and it is always proper to contact a Chartered Accountant and the fees are very very nominal and you can rest assured and sleep peacefully if accounting is properly ensured.
