Hi

Try this

source="diff.csv" host="ind1" sourcetype="csv" 
| table C1 C2 
| sort C1 
| stats values(C2) as C2 by C1 
| eval num1 = mvindex(C2,0) 
| eval num2 = mvindex(C2,1) 
| eval diff = num2-num1 
| table C1,C2,diff

It worked!!!

Thank you !!!.. but what if there are multiple As Bs Cs and Ds
As of now this solution is perfect for 2 same values.
