Hi
Sorry for replying late.....
Actually nobody had given the exact solution what i wanted it. But I solved
it on my own after reading the man of diff
here is the small script
diff -c file-a file-b > temp
grep "^!" temp > recchgfilea-b.data
grep "^+" temp > recextrafilea.data
grep "^- " temp > recextrafileb.data
grep "^ " temp > recsamefilea-b.data
sort recchgfilea-b.data > recchgfilea-b.txt
sort recextrafilea.data > recextrafilea.txt
sort recextrafileb.data > recextrafileb.txt
sort recsamefilea-b.data > recsamefilea-b.txt
rm *.data
file -a (contents)

and finally I grep as per the first sign in the column which means
One line was changed in both files (marked with !)
One line was added to price1 (marked with +)
One line was removed from price1 (marked with -).
and sorted the file
Thanks
